Summary
- A multimedia tour honors the late poet Andrea Gibson with film, music, and poetry.

- Andrea Gibson passed away on July 14, 2025, after battling ovarian cancer.
A special multimedia event, "Andrea Gibson: Love Letter From the Afterlife," recently captivated nearly 10,000 guests at Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre. This event served as a profound tribute to the late poet Andrea Gibson, who passed away on July 14, 2025, following her courageous fight against ovarian cancer.
The unique production, born from the creators of the Oscar-nominated documentary "Come See Me in the Good Light," showcased a film of Gibson's poignant final performance from 2024. This cinematic experience was enhanced by live musical performances and an orchestral score conducted by Blake Neely.
Following the success at Red Rocks, the "Love Letter From the Afterlife" is embarking on a 14-date national tour. Kicking off on November 4, 2026, in Saint Paul, Minnesota, the tour will feature Gibson's partner, Megan Falley, alongside the Goosebump Orchestra and special guests, presenting a blend of film, poetry, and music.
The tour's centerpiece is the screening of "Love Letter From the Afterlife," directed by Ryan White. The film captures Gibson's last performance at Denver's Paramount Theatre, with live orchestral accompaniment recreating Neely's original score. This initiative aims to allow audiences to feel Gibson's continued presence and voice.
