The Avant Garde
Mobius, Cavalia, and the Boston Blues Festival

MOBIUS

Mobius, Boston’s itinerant avant-savant artists group, will occupy an abandoned South Boston industrial building as part of "InBetween: Mobius On-Site at Building 16," which involves 24 artists, 10 collaborative teams, and three days of performance, installation, and mixed media in a titanic space on the Waterfront. No stranger to non-traditional spaces in non-traditional places (a Roman bathhouse in Macedonia, a Byzantine chapel in Croatia, a shipyard in Gdansk), Mobius is calling this "the most ambitious deployment of artists to a languishing city-owned property thus far." That’s September 23-25 | Building 16, 25 Fid Kennedy Avenue, South Boston | 617.542.7416 or www.mobius.org.

CAVALIA

The horses won’t be racing at Suffolk Downs when Cavalia: A Magical Encounter Between Horse and Man shows up on September 7. But they will be gamboling, galloping, and dancing with acrobats, aerialists, riders, and dancers. The 50 horses and 32 humans perform in front of a 200-foot-wide screen projected with dreamy, constantly changing scenes in an equestrian spectacle that’s the brainchild of Normand Latourelle, one of the founders of Cirque du Soleil. It runs through September 11 under the Big White Top at Suffolk Downs, Route 1A, East Boston | $69-$79, $49-$59 for kids under 12 | 866.999.8111.

BOSTON BLUES FESTIVAL

Muddy Waters Band veteran Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson and Eddie "The Chief" Clearwater headline a "West Side Chicago Reunion" at the Regent Theatre in Arlington on September 22 in a run-up to the 10th annual Boston Blues Festival on the Hatch Shell on September 24 and 25, when 90-year-old living legend David "Honeyboy" Edwards will perform along with Duke Robillard, Sugar Ray Norcia, David Maxwell, Sweet Willie D, Chris Fitz, and Phil Towne. | Regent Theatre, 7 Medford St, Arlington | $20-$50 | Hatch Shell, Charles River Esplanade, Boston | free | 781.646.4849 or www.bluestrust.com.
