The La Tosca was my neighborhood show and we went there many times. In those days the price for a kid was 15 cents. The manager or owner’s name was Burkoff. At the time the theater was very much on the cutting edge. There was a water fountain booth that you went into and the water automatically turned and off when you left. Lots of good memories sitting there in “lodge section” watching movies.
I was by the place in the 80’s and have a picture to add, the place is all boarded up and looks like it’s ready for USC to buy it and tear it down. When can I send the picture? tom layden
