THE PITS
THE PITS by. Sarah Welch is based in part on the infamous environmental crimes committed at the Dixie Oil Processors and Brio Refinery Site located directly across from the San Jacinto College South Campus. The production tells the story of the Brio site in a 360-degree, immersive environment that blends reality with speculative fiction.
