Hi Renee. I think what's nice about the show itself is that you can choose anything you want in the way of costumes and set. The last time I did the show in a high school, we did contemporary clothing, but started in B/W and then after Prepare Ye they all changed into color, each "apostle" a different color. Once they had their color I had each character design their own costume, but they had to justify all their choices based on their character. Jesus was all in white. We added a "choir" and they were all in white as well. Our set was boxes and ladders and all the props were in the boxes. The major set piece was painting the floor in a design that incorporated symbols of all the monotheistic religions in an abstract design in shades of greys. All the lighting was done like a rock concert.
I don't know if any of that helps you. I do have pictures somewhere if you're interested in seeing them. Good luck :)
