ICE FACTORY 2021 SCHEDULEJune 30 - August 14Endless Loop of GratitudeOngoing Sound InstallationCreated for New Neighborhood by Broken Chord, Jackson Gay, Steven Padla, Riw Rakkulchon and Ashley ThomasEndless Loop of Gratitude is a solo, interactive sound installation that opens one hour prior to the start of each Ice Factory performance. Participants are invited to record their own reflections on gratitude or read the words of another person who is not present. In a culture that can reduce the most profound feelings to blithe hashtags, this interactive installation invites participants up to the microphone to reflect on the people, places, and events that have impacted their own lives: what are you really grateful for?June 30 - July 3The Extremely Grey LineA 23.5 Tilt ProductionCo-written by Kate Pressman and Elizagrace MadroneDirected by Estefania FadulFeaturing Sam Gonzalez, Julia Hall, Elizagrace Madrone, Alejandra Venancio and Layla WolfgangCome take a ride on the Extremely Grey Line - a site-specific show led by psychopomps, designed around the streets of New York which are also the graveyards of New York which is also the life of New York.

A deeply personal response to the rise of hate crimes against the Asian community, Kim Loo Gets a Redo shifts the historical paradigm to the AAPI perspective, explores the erasure of AAPI women both past and present, and reclaims agency lost.July 14 - 17Liminal ArchiveAl Lmite CollectiveProducing Directors: Leah Bachar, Monica Hunken and Dennis Yueh-Yeh LiAudio Design by Benny Woodard, Leah Bachar and Jessica Daugherty, Scenic Design by Monica Hunken, Lighting Design by Hao Bai, Projection Design by Dennis Yueh-Yeh Li and Dramaturgy by Tom WalkerFeaturing Leah Bachar, Shan Y. Chuang, Sanam Erfani, Monica Hunken, Ann Treesa Joy and Philip Santos SchafferThis immersive theatrical experience guides audiences through the intimate moments of isolation experienced by artists as they traverse the unknown during the early days of the pandemic. Liminal Archive began as an open-source platform, providing a cultural exchange for international artists to collaborate together during a lockdown and mass uprisings, and it has collected more than 40 artworks, including music, digital art and theater. Al Lmite has curated these offerings into a 40-minute odyssey of live performances, projections and audio journeys where we venture through the past, the present, and find our way together into the future.July 21 - 24As the Sun SetsBy Dow DanceChoreography by Caleb DowdenFeaturing Imani Gaudin-County, Andy Guzmn, Jai Perez and Caleb DowdenWhat does radical Black love look like in a racist world? How do we find love when we have to fight to simply exist? This dance/media work explores how Black people continue to find happiness and joy even in the predominantly white spaces of Sundown Towns, where their very presence makes them unsafe. A kinetic, visual representation of Black stories celebrating how radical Black love has and always will flourish, even in the midst of violence.July 28 - 31A Grave is Given SupperPoems by Mike SotoDirected by Claudia AcostaFeaturing Elena Hurstin partnership with Teatro DallasIn this Narco-Acid Western two lovers converge in a US/Mexico border town during a raging drug war. Anchored by a series of surreal and interlinked poems, infused with rituals of love and loss, this multimedia work incorporates video projections, dance and a Nortec soundscape to explore the complicated desires of people living in the borderland.August 4 - 7HERSTORYIn Tandem LabCreated and directed by Gisela CardenasCreated by and featuring Laura Butler-Levitt and Heather HollingsworthWritten by Javier Antonio GonzlezArt Design by Peiyi WongA female artist leaves an inheritance to two young women with no apparent relationship to her or each other. But on one condition: they must create something together. Excavating the artists drawings and short stories, captivated by revelations about their previously unknown past, these two women emerge from isolation in the act of giving life to another womans story. This new work asks: how can we start telling the stories written in our genes and passed from one generation to another? Inspired by Shakespeares female characters.August 11 - 14My OnlinessOne-Eighth TheatreText by Robert LyonsDirected by Daniel IrizarryComposer Kamala SankaramDirector of ASL Alexandria Wailesin partnership with IRT TheatreFeaturing Daniel Irizarry, Cynthia La Cruz, Kamala Sankaram, Gabriel Silva, Rhys Tivey and Alexandria WailesA Mad King performs his royal power as an act of martyrdom in a desperate attempt to impress a mysterious petitioner while the Master of Ceremony orchestrates songs of torture, truth, and tenderness.

An homage to Stanislaw Witkacy and his theories of pure forms in theatre. Performed with fully integrated ASL interpreters.A new collaboration between Daniel Irizarry and Robert Lyons, following the international success of Yovo (NYC/Poland/Cuba).Special Benefit Performance August 14 at 7pm celebrating our return to live theatre!
