ICE FACTORY

Ice Factory is our OBIE award-winning summer festival of new work. 
 
Every summer we invite the most exciting downtown companies to present their latest projects in an environment of generosity, dialogue, and inspirations.  ICE FACTORY is a place where artists can take risks, try out new ideas, and bring their projects to a new level.
 
Plays introduced in Ice Factory have gone on to garner Drama Desk nominations, OBIE Awards, Audience First Awards in Edinburgh, Off-Broadway productions, commercial runs, and national and international tours.
