THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, December 8, 2023 Page 9 Malden performer explores birthday connections in new work A lexandria Nunweiler of The Click dance group will present “Edge of Aquarius.” Years in the making, Edge of Aquarius explores the rituals, controversies, history and anxieties that plague modern birthdays. Using original interviews as well as historical documents, this dance/theater piece will take a microscope to the aging process and milestone birthdays. 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 defi nitely 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 fi ne line between darkness and humor.
