'Do you read the comments on YouTube? The Last Tuesday Society sure does – and they’re inviting you to delve into this dark world of our online unconscious. The Last Tuesday Society’s intrepid artists will create brand new works from these open forums, sifting through grammatically incorrect insults, dodging trolls, finding the LOLS and perhaps even encountering unexpected pathos. Will enlightening vistas be revealed amongst the mountains of banality? Or vast plains of offensive drivel? Will this YouTube comment orchestra play beautiful music ... Or just auto-tune?

'The Last Tuesday Society regularly presents Australia’s most innovative performance-makers in pubs, warehouses, tin sheds and once even a theatre restaurant. A practice perfected over the past six years, The Last Tuesday Society has carved out a joyful niche for Melbourne’s live art, underground cabaret and left-field comedy scene.

'The YouTube Comment Orchestra is a theatrical spectacular exploiting the innocent enthusiasm, unintended surrealism, incomprehensible babble and mad manifestos of our online world to create a commentary on commentary.' (Production abstract)
