first things,,,is there that same green board behind that tile as well?? I sure hope not.

Is the light over the tub rated for wet environment? there should be a cover over that one. looks like the same one that you have outside of the shower.

I was trying to find some that had it done so I could see how it would look. could only find a few

to get an idea of what it would like,,,paint it the dark gray color and see if you like it.

Either way,,,,but I'm leaning more towards no. save the tile in case you have a breakage down the road.

Hi Beth, it's concrete board under the existing tile and the light is wet environment rated. Also, thanks for the pictures.

To everyone, thanks for the input. Not sure if I made it clear, but I was only going to tile the ceiling above the tub, not the entire bathroom.

So, no one is concerned with mold or condensation on the ceiling once the high tub sliding doors are in?

michael,,how high up are you taking the doors? There's usually enough clearance between glass/ceiling. and I'm assuming you have a fan in the bathroom? You shouldn't have condensation on the ceiling at all w/proper ventilation.

I tiled the ceiling of my shower, with no regrets. It was a very light colored tile. I like the way it looks finished. So I would say go for it.

Beth, the glass sliding door for the tub will leave 5 inches to the ceiling. There is a fan in the bathroom, but its outside the tub area, as seen in the picture.

dowagercountess, I have another bathroom with a standalone shower that has a tiled ceiling, white with grey veins, and I love it, but I'm not sure about the tiled dark ceiling for a tub. But now that I think of it, it might turn out very nice.

It appears that you have a light over the tub, so the darkness shouldn't be an issue.

We almost always tile the ceiling as a precaution for moisture. Especially with ceiling heights such as yours.
