SYNOPSIS
In seaside Warrnambool, the Find Your Voice Collective is the largest accessible choir in the world, with most of its 250 members identifying with a disability. Born of experiences with institutionalisation, societal stigma, and the raw struggle of being human, the choir wants their music to be a vehicle for radical change.
After five years of writing, recording and performing their own music, they’re ready for their most ambitious project yet… an all-original concert at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, backed by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
