People are born naked, and the rest is drag - RuPaul Just had to scroll through this article about Out in the Hills festival in Pitlochry 
. I'm all for more inclusivity and representation, especially when it's done well like here. It's great that Alan Cumming is bringing some fresh energy to the festival scene with his vision. The lineup looked super diverse and exciting - who wouldn't want to see Jo Clifford, Finlay Wilson, and Sir Ian McKellen on stage? 
The fact that they're tackling tough topics like homophobia and conversion therapy in a lighthearted way is also super refreshing. It's nice to see the festival owners thinking about how to create a safe space for everyone, not just celebrating LGBTQ+ but also trying to make people think about their own biases. Would love to go next year

just heard about Out in the Hills and I'm OBSESSED ! Alan Cumming is a genius for bringing this kind of event to Pitlochry Festival Theatre, it's so necessary for Scotland's LGBTQ+ community to have a platform like this 
. The lineup was incredible too, who knew there'd be Kilted Yoga? 
and Sir Ian McKellen reading Laurie Slade's Equinox - that sounds so powerful 
. Can't wait to see more events like this in the future, it's all about spreading love and acceptance 
Just watched some clips from Out in the Hills at Pitlochry Festival Theatre... Alan Cumming really killed it . That ceilidh led by Malin Lewis Trio was so much fun! Sir Ian McKellen's energy is still electric 
. I love how they made space for Jo Clifford and Finlay Wilson's Kilted Yoga - representation matters . Graham Norton was on fire too, keeping it real and funny while discussing tough stuff . Scotland just got a whole lot cooler 
just watched that rehearsal reading with Sir Ian McKellen and I'm still reeling 
Laurie Slade's Equinox is such a powerful piece... Alan Cumming's vision for Out in the Hills is really something special Pitlochry Festival Theatre is definitely a must-visit event next year
