Cinematography Classes
A Natural Progression
The Nosara Playhouse is built around using theatre to help our students expand and grow. Over the years our older students have mastered the craft of theatre and were ready to incorporate a new art. In the fall of 2024 we got the chance to act upon a dream we didn’t know we had: we were offered the amazing opportunity to teach our students the art of film.
