Overview

Bill Brummel is a Peabody Award and International Documentary Award-winning filmmaker and multi-Emmy Award nominee. Can You Hear My Voice? is his first film after having his voice box removed in 2016.

Join us virtually for an hour of inspiration as we meet and take a look into Bill Brummel’s moving documentary Can You Hear My Voice?  The film follows an extraordinary choir of cancer survivors who lost their voices to throat cancer and explores the healing possibilities of communal singing. View clips and hear insights from Brummel as the choir prepares for a sold-out performance in London. Then join the discussion with Bill Brummel and healthcare professionals from the Abramson Cancer Center to learn about navigating the experience of voice box removal (laryngectomy).

Who Should Attend

  • Anyone affected by or at risk for throat cancer
  • Family member, caregiver, and members of the public
  • Healthcare providers involved in the care of people with throat cancer
