Alan Cumming is a Scottish screen and stage actor, filmmaker, and writer. He publicly came out as bi on the cover of Out Magazine in 1998, simultaneous to his role as the Emcee in Cabaret on Broadway. He is currently the host of the show Traitors, about which he says, "With all these draconian, horrific laws and attitudes against the queer and trans community right now, I think it's a really positive thing to see so many queer people and trans people in a show that also cele-brates dressing up, androgyny, femme-ness, and queerness."

You might light this candle and look to Alan for inspiration and guidance in: healing from childhood trauma, succeeding in a wide variety of roles, bringing queerness to everything you do
