Kanye West is putting on his second opera, Mary, this weekend in Miami.
Last month, the JESUS IS KING musician hosted his first opera Nebuchadnezzar.
The opera was named after the ancient Babylon king Nebuchadnezzar, who Kanye West referenced in his recent interview with Zane Lowe when talking about his Yeezus tour.
This Sunday (8 December), Kanye West will be putting on his second opera, which is called Mary.

Mary, much like Nebuchadnezzar, will feature music by his Sunday Service performers, and will be directed by Vanessa Beecroft.
Kanye West's Mary opera takes place at Miami's Marine Stadium on Sunday (8 December), the final day of Art Basel.
