About Kevin Tent
After attending Los Angeles City College’s film school, Kevin Tent got his first break editing the film “Not of This Earth” for legendary B-movie producer Roger Corman.  Simultaneously Tent tapped into the emerging US Independent film movement, cutting the underground hit “Guncrazy” directed by Tamra Davis and then “Citizen Ruth” by director Alexander Payne (executive producer Crash Pad). Tent has cut all of Payne’s movies since including “Election”, “Sideways”, “The Descendants” (for which he received an Academy Award® nomination) and most recently “Downsizing”.  After his long and sordid career in editing Tent makes his directorial debut with “Crash Pad” an Original Black List selected screenplay written by Jeremy Catalino.

Metro Red Line
Yes, Los Angeles has a subway and if possible you ought to use it. Riders are dropped of at Sunset and Vermont and then it is a walk of several blocks and uphill to get to the Theatre. The Park has a gated stairway ending at Barnsdall Ave, just behind the strip mall. It's the only access point from this side, but it is often locked. There is long, tree-shaded stairway leading from Hollywood Blvd to the Gallery Theatre and this area is sometimes shared with a homeless population. The best route for people who use mobility devices is the sidewalk along the Barnsdall Park road access. More info on the Red Line can be found here.

PARKING: Parking is FREE. There is ample parking on top of hill near the Art Park. Parking extends around the perimeter of the Park. NOTE: Please park your car diagonally even though the spaces are not marked that way. If there are no spaces to park at top, then use parking lot at bottom of hill near Hollywood Blvd. Click HERE to download a PDF(300K) of the grounds that points out the parking areas and includes other helpful hints.
