JW3 and KeshetUK are celebrating Pride 2021 with a BIG 21st birthday party - and you're all invited!
Hosted by the best party entertainers in town, Chanukah Lewinsky & Christian Adore, we'll travel back in time to hear spectacular stories from LGBTQ+ Jews in our community about their life at 21 and what their 21st birthday party would have looked like were they planning it today. Prepare yourself for some incredible stories, party games, laughter and, of course, rainbow cake!

Christian Adore
Lovable soft-boy Christian Adore improvises "radio-ready” ★★★★★ [LGBTQ+ Arts Review] songs, sketches and raps on the spot. This dashing, "gender bending Disney prince" [Them Magazine, '8 drag kings you need to know'] celebrates effeminate masculinity, in all its foppish fabulosity. Nominated for Edinburgh’s TV Festival 2020, New Voice Award, supported by Netflix, as well as an Off West End Award in 2019.
