Kanye: The Musical

Kanye West is set to be the subject of a new musical now that plans to make one in his honor have been confirmed.

Kanye: The Musical will be performed at The University Of Sydney by two students Phillip Roser and Damien Higginbotham next month according o music publication Pop & Hiss.

The students recently told the publication that the musical will be a lighthearted story on Ye's life and rise to fame thus far.

"I'm a big Kanye fan," said Roser. "I thought that a musical in his honour would be a lot of fun to put on. I really just meant the show to be something fun for my friends to see and I'm pretty excited by all the attention it's been getting."

Roser, a senior at The University of Sydney majoring in education, will play the role of Kanye while Higginbotham, an alum, will take on the role of Donda West--Kanye's late mother.

Higginbotham will also play designer Marc Jacobs and a third character named "Spooky Dracula."

Kanye: The Musical will run Sept. 5 though 7 at the university's Cellar Theatre.
