STREET SMARTS

I’m really growing tired of Milt Larsen’s begging for support of the Variety Arts Center. But then, maybe now, he knows what it’s like to be a street entertainer.

Where is his support for the L.A. street entertainers? Where was his support when the street entertainers were kicked out of Westwood? Where is his support now for the entertainers of Venice Beach?

Not one person that I’m aware of in his show is an L.A. street entertainer.

It’s a shame to hear of Larsen’s problem of not being able to attract an audience. He should get down to Venice, and take a few lessons from entertainers who attract thousands.
