PIGwhat?

by Meg Hine

When I wrote up the last Upcoming Events, some how I missed that starting today(through July 24th) is the PIGLFF, Philadelphia International Gay and Lesbian Film Festival!

PIGLFF

The Philadelphia International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival is sexy, enticing, surprising and fun - showcasing nearly 200 films from around the globe, featuring world premieres, sneak previews, classic revivals and more, all in the comfort of cushy seats and air-conditioned theaters down Broad Street and throughout the Gayborhood…

…With a reputation, the parties and receptions are dazzling and fabulous, with a different event every night of the week! From dance parties to bowling and billiards, leather bars to ice cream socials, kinky Quizzo to lavish riverfront views - audiences will enjoy outdoor screenings on South Street and at Penn’s Landing, with stops in between at a dynamite array of queer-friendly bars, restaurants, hotels and clubs.
(quoted from the PIGLFF official website)

The centerpiece screenings are Out at the Wedding (jul 13 & 15) Itty Bitty Titty Committee (jul 14 & 15), Hairspray (jul 19th), The Witnesses (jul 19 & 21) and The Bubble (jul 20 & 22).
Also look for appearances by drag superstar, Rupaul, Anthony Rapp from the movie Rent and many others! For more information, check out the official program guide.
