[quote=GRIZ326,240200]I just did quite a bit of street magic going through China but did not put on my old street act, just a few good effects for the kids...which entertained the parents too. The people seemed to enjoy the magic. I did not pass the hat, but imagin that passing the hat would draw mixed reactions. Some one will correct me if I am wrong about this, but begging appears to be frowned upon by many/most Chinese. One Chinese man told me that "...beggars have more money in their pockets than you do." You will not see many beggars even in Beijing. I did see people playing instruments at the north gate of the Forbidden City with cans for money and they were pretty much ignored by the Chinese. I suspect passing the hat would be seen as begging.[/quote]
