Hi Renee! This is a great show to connect throughout the school. Caren's thoughts about costumes are perfect, practical,age appropriate(especially for 5-8) and up to date. Again, brainstorming set ideas with your kids will generate a unique and practical set that they can MOVE and ACT in. Give students your priorities for set(safety, dance/acting space, budget,creativity and let them go! many do this with a simple playground setting..jungle gym, see saw etc. This equipment is easily moved and sturdy...even the plastic ones. This is a great cut of Godspell...keeping it simple will show off your kids. Don't forget to display set designs in your lobby during the performance. You will have a ball!
