🥽 LabWorks Artist Announcement 🥽

Shapeshifter Collective is a collaborative performance group organized by Mandy Hackman and Miles Wilder that uses ritual, movement, sound, and sense of place to explore the interconnections between us and the landscapes we inhabit, us and our ancestors big and small, and us and each other. Performers Mandy Hackman, Alissa Feller, and Sophia Herscu are all multi-skilled movement artists, makers, and acrobats, who have been moving together with curiosity for the last several years.

Notes from the artist on “A Funeral for Hopes and Dreams”: This is a presentation of research in development for a longer work dealing with ambiguous loss and community rituals of grief. This subsection of material is an exploration of entanglement / circumstantial connection / relating to the limitations of connectedness through structured improvisation within a web of span sets. This work is being developed alongside live improvisational soundscapes by Miles Wilder.

🥽 LabWorks Artist Announcement 🥽

karen Krolak (she/her )is the co-Artistic Director of Monkeyhouse, an award winning nonprofit that connects communities with choreography. She was recently described as a sign post pointing in dozens of directions ready to guide mentees anywhere they want to go artistically.

Her ongoing project, the Dictionary of Negative Space (DoNS) holds space for the words that the English language lacks for grief, trauma, and repair. Currently, karen is a co-producer of NACHMO Boston, a Board member for The Flavor Continues and Boston Dance Alliance, an Advisor for The Black Arts Sanctuary, Subcircle and Rasik, an Artist Advisory Council Member for the Boston Center for the Arts, a 2025 Mass Creative Fellow, a dramaturg for Jessica Roseman, Laura Sanchez, Human Movement Project, Simon Montalvo, and a freelance audio describer. Krolak holds a BA in Linguistics from Northwestern University and an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts from Sierra Nevada University. She is honored to have been the first (official) Artist in Residence at the Newton Cemetery and Arboretum, a semipro haberdasher for hamsters, and a member of diplomatic delegations to Morocco.

From the Artist: Krolak is rehashing Hireath II, one of Iris Fanger’s favorite pieces of 2015, and the kernel that inspired her Dictionary of Negative Space. This solo is a moving meditation on what keeps people running in the marathon of mourning. Pack your ear plugs because she sings in this one.

🥽 LabWorks Artist Announcement 🥽

Circus 617 is a collective dedicated to highlighting Boston-based professional circus artists, choreographers, and directors in new works of contemporary circus, created right here in the city we love. Circus 617 productions meld the spectacular, expressive physicality of circus with theatrical and musical methods of storytelling. Founded in 2020, Circus 617 received a LAB grant from the Boston Foundation in 2021 to create their debut ensemble production, Gathering the Threads.

From Circus 617: “This is a presentation of research for a new work in development. We are in a phase of creating together with props on the ground, as a group of humans who all work in many circus disciplines but who usually come together in the air. This material will be presented in a longer format with a larger cast later in May.”

🥽 LabWorks Artist Announcement 🥽

Alexander Davis is a Boston-based homosexual, attention activist, choreographer, and fiber artist. His solo Gay Aesthetic: Based on a True Story premiered at American Dance Festival in December 2025. He assisted on Greta Gerwig’s Little Women, which he will never stop talking about. His visual art is represented by Childs Gallery in Boston. He is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Dance at Dean. If you have any questions, find him after the show. He is very much available and honestly would appreciate the attention.


About the work: “Witness the beginnings of a new solo work playing in the slippery space between confession and fabrication. Using the tools of storytelling, dance, and autobiographical performance, Davis tests how much an audience is willing to believe when a performer looks them in the eyes and says “trust me.” It’s an honest show about lying, or a dishonest show about telling the truth. Alex isn’t sure yet.”

🥽 LabWorks Artist Announcement 🥽

Alexandria Nunweiler is a dancemaker and movement practitioner who utilizes improvisation and collaboration to play with large life questions. Through her independent choreographic project, NunweilerTanz, she explores formative beliefs, guilty pleasures, and the fine line between darkness and humor by outfitting contemporary dance with comedic theater and performance art structures. Recently Alexandria was chosen as a Dancemaker resident at Boston Center for the Arts (2025/26), served as a dramaturg in Company One’s CoLab (2024/25), and received the Next Steps for Boston Dance (2024/25) grant. She earned her BA in Dance from Winthrop University (Rock Hill, SC) and her MSc in International Business from Hult International Business School (Boston, MA & Shanghai, China).

From NunweilerTanz: “Named for my Oma, EMMA is a performance project and crochet installation exploring immigration, matriarchy, and nostalgia. It blends the contemporary with the traditional both in movement and dress to reignite and rewrite memory cultures.”
