Rhondda Arts Festival Presents:

An 80s LGBTQ+ Kid in the Valleys – A Memoir

Join Christopher Anstee, Author of best selling LGBTQ+ Memoir, Polish The Crown. 

Polish The Crown is a powerful collection of memories, poems and beautiful illustrations that celebrate the extraordinarily ordinary life of a boy who grew up under the shadow of Section 28 in the Rhondda Valleys during the 1980s.  

Join Christopher as he reads from and chats about the book and about the tools and techniques he developed to overcome the adversity of years and years of homophobic bullying. Christopher is now a success Author and Public Speaker who has talked about his story and overcoming adversity all over the U.K. and in the US. Christopher joins us to share his story, much closer to his childhood home, in the Rhondda.
