About This Show

Spill is based on the events surrounding the 2010 British Petroleum (BP) oil spill, the largest environmental disaster in U.S. history. Created from interviews, testimony, court documents, and media accounts collected in the aftermath of the spill, Spill follows the story of the 2010 explosion aboard the oil rig Deepwater Horizon and the devastating impact of the 87-day spill on the coastal communities and marine life of Louisiana. The play is both written and directed by Leigh Fondakowski (The Laramie Project).
