I am installing a shower in the basement and using the Schluter-Kerdi shower membrane kit. The kit does not include doing the ceiling of the shower. So my question is this, I have used green drywall, do I need to put in a vapour barrier between the drywall and the ceiling joist?

Unless you're building a steam room, no.
(The bath should, of course, be ventillated per code, with a minimum 50 CFM fan.)
