VOX FEMINISTA DATES:
..
The Denver Westword says “If slamming were professional boxing, Andrea Gibson would be the light weight you don’t think much of until she’s knocked you flat on your ass.â€
Rousing audiences throughout the United States and Canada with her poignant message and genuine interest in generating change, Andrea Gibson is a poet/activist whose work deconstructs the foundations of the current political machine.
A four time Denver Grand Slam Champion, and winner of the 2008 Women of The World Poetry Slam (Detroit), Gibson has placed 3rd in the world for the last 3 years by the iWPS.
HBO Def Poet Andrés Gómez has called Gibson both deeply haunting and profoundly inspiring. “Her words cut so sharply and completely they cannot be shaken. To call her one of the best poets would be a gross understatement.†Andrea is a 5 year performer with Vox Feminista, a theatre troupe of radical political women bent on social change and global justice. She is also a member of The Bullhorn Collective, “comprised of thirty of the highest ranking slam poets and accomplished performance poets in the world.â€
Performing over 170 live shows, readings and workshops a year, Gibson has headlined prestigious performance venues coast to coast including The Nuyorican Poet's Café, Bar 13, The Bowery Poetry Club and many Universities and Festivals throughout the US. She has been showcased on Free Speech TV, the documentary Slam Planet, NPR, Air America, Sirius Radio and Independent Radio Stations nationwide.
