Eckert, a Pulitzer Prize finalist for Drama, Obie Award winner and recently-named Doris Duke Artist, will also debut a new work commissioned by the Festival for himself plus JACK Quartet, who will also present a rare performance of String Theory, an acclaimed work by Steve Mackey. JACK, which has electrified audiences worldwide with its "explosive virtuosity" (Boston Globe) and "viscerally exciting performances" (New York Times), will also join Big Farm in songs during their expansive, theatrical set.
