Essentially, dry ice will simply change from a solid straight to a gas through sublimation at room temperature. Nothing is needed to change the state of matter of dry ice except a higher temperature.

Why use dry ice to make stage effect instead of water ice?

Dry ice goes through one change to make "fog", but water ice has to go through two changes to become a gas.You could use water ice to make fog, but it would have to go through the liquid phase before it evaporates or boils. But dry ice, instead of melting and evaporating, will go through what is called sublimation, which is the change of matter of solid to gas.
