Costumes

The costumes for this show will be very artistic yet still hold some realism. I will list some examples of different characters costumes and how they came about to be that way.

Adam and Eve:
When Adam and Even first enter the Garden of Eden they are completely naked and unaware of it. Then they eat the fruit,"And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves aprons" (Bible, Genesis). So for these two they will be naked at first; which will be represented by skin colored undergarments. Then once they eat from the tree of knowledge there will be an apron of fig leaves for them to wear. This will be done artistically with fabric and possibly paint. It will try to look realistic, however, with a heavenly glow.

This is a good starting point; the leaves would be much more artistic.

Devil/Serpent:
This costume will be much more creative. Since this character starts out as the devil it will wear a black coat to mask the serpent costume underneath. This persons whole body will be covered in body paint plus feathers and sequins for the scales for the skin. This will show off the sleekness of the character, while being a pleasure to look at.

This as well is nice but there would need to be much more a stuff similar to this.

The Three Marys:
These garments will be in a very light, flowing fabric. The costumes will be much closer to the outfits of the time. The dresses will flow elegantly to the floor and cover them completely. Each woman will have her own color that depicts who she was as a person.

This image shows the style of dress well.
