In the shadow of Sunset Boulevards billboards promoting Peacocks upcoming The Office spinoff, The Paper, the theater was labeled the Toledo Truth Tower in homage to the new shows central setting.
Created by Greg Daniels and Michael Koman, The Paper follows the staff of a dying local Ohio newspaper, the Toledo Truth Teller, as a new editor-in-chief tries to revive its journalistic prowess. Its set in the same universe as The Office, and the documentary crew that followed Dunder Mifflin has now arrived at the Truth Tellers doorstep, looking to cover a new set of subjects.
