After his father left him at an early age, Goald Towe never quite recovered. He was forced to quickly learn to rely on himself to survive in an unfriendly world.
A loner, Goald Towe has yet to find his sole-mate, and doesn't trust outsiders.
He has kept to the shadows and evaded pursuit for a long time... but does all luck eventually run out?

Where He Last Fell
Little is known about Old Soc's past.
But one thing is certain: he's never been afraid to step on toes. And he knows more than most.
He is prone to outbursts. But he's old, so he's earned the right to stretch boundaries.

THE TEAM
Hotel Nowhere is an improv/sketch comedy team that started as a House Team at the Steel City Improv Theater (SCIT) in Pittsburgh, PA, USA.

You can currently see Hotel Nowhere performing improv every Monday as part of TFM (Totally Free Mondays) @ 8pm at the SCIT.

(And stay tuned for more video sketches and content.)

But we didn't do it alone...

A huge thanks goes out to the everyone who helped us, including:
  • James Rushin , our creative virtuoso, who composed and recorded the entire original score in approximately an hour
  • Koa (the dog), for not sleeping the entire day and putting up with our nonsense
48-HOUR TIMELINE

Two representatives from Hotel Nowhere make their way to Chatham University's Eddy Theater to acquire vital 48 Hour Film Project information.
July 12, 2013 @ around 7:30 pm.
Each team is randomly assigned a genre, and all teams are given the same three required elements:
  • A prop (A photo of Mom and/or Dad)
  • A line of dialogue ("How did you figure it out?")
  • A character (Trey or Trish Campell, Spokesperson)
Our genre? "Horror"
