Malden-based Nunweiler hopes the piece makes audiences contemplate the connections that bind humans across time and cultures. But she says there’s also plenty of room for fun, inspired by a fascinating fact, known as The Birthday Paradox, which she discovered while doing research. “Apparently, if at least 23 people are in a room together, there’s a 50 percent chance that two of them will have the same birthday,” Nunweiler says. “We’re definitely going to have some fun with that!” Nunweiler is a contemporary choreographer, performer and educator. Her movement, which is described by Dance Informa as “grace with power,” is rooted in history, human experience and the fine line between darkness and humor. Alexandria earned her B.A. in Dance from Winthrop University, where her thesis “Valhallveien” represented the university at the American College Dance Festival Southeast in 2014. She also holds her MSc in International Business from Hult International Business School – studying in both Boston, Mass., and Shanghai, China. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), which she brings Celebrating Our 52nd Year Chris 2024 into both yoga and dance spaces as a framework for how she organizes and translates movement practices.
