Nebuchadnezzar
Directed by multi-disciplinary artist and longtime ‘Ye collaborator, Vanessa Beecroft, the roughly hour-long show featured the Sunday Service choir, singer Peter Collins, the group Infinity’s Song and visual performers. This was not a “hip-hop musical” a la DaBaby’s “BOP” nor was it similar to ‘Ye’s previous congregations featuring holy remixes to contemporary favorites.
Other striking images that linger long after the final bow include the bit where Daniel vowed to not “defile himself with the royal food and wine” as two lengthy dinner tables with platters piled high of a kingly feast were rolled out. Several performers began chomping at the delicacies without using their hands. This prompted Daniel and his friends to consume only vegetables and water for 10 days, appearing fairer and more agile than those who indulged in a gluttonous diet.
The production also felt like a triumphant moment to see -- and hear! -- a majority of melanin faces onstage for an opera. . Despite ‘Ye’s controversial opinions and sharp yet seemingly erratic musical pivots, he continues to stay committed to his spiritual causes under the influence of God, which has yielded opportunities for those based in faith to shine beside him.
