Damaged voices with the strength to walk towards the light
The Sound Voice Project staged at The Royal Opera House’s Linbury Theatre tells the searing story of people who have lost theirs
I shall never take my voice for granted again. The Sound Voice Project staged at The Royal Opera House’s Linbury Theatre tells in short operatic form the searing story of people who have lost theirs. Through devastating laryngeal cancer, Parkinson’s, or motor neurone disease.
Only to find them again by summoning the courage to use restorative surgery – aimed at creating only a basic, husky voice – to sing out defiantly and with optimism. Sound advice. Don’t mess with the Shout at Cancer choir!
