In this episode, we preview Ice Factory 2007 with Robert Lyons, who is the founder and artistic director of this long-running and very popular summer new works festival. This year marks the 14th annual edition Ice Factory, and features seven productions that will each run a week at the Ohio Theater, from July 4 - August 18.

Robert also talks about his long career as a producer, director, and playwright, including 17 years (so far) running the Ohio. (He also discloses the real reason why the Ohio Theater has its name!)

The seven shows at Ice Factory 2007 are: No More Pretending by Inverse Theater, Johnny Applef?%ker by The Bushwick Hotel, Stretch: a fantasia by New Georges, The Lacy Project by Alena Smith, 80% of Love by Rindfleisch, Vampire University by John Kaplan, and The 7 Battles by The Best.
