The Sonnet Project
Free AppAbout The Sonnet Project
The Sonnet Project is a massive multimedia exploration of Shakespeare's great poems. We are creating 154 short films, one for each sonnet. Each video stars a different actor and is filmed at a different iconic or historic location in NYC. In the year leading up to Shakespeare's 450th birthday in April 2014, NY Shakespeare Exchange will release a new video every 2-3 days.
The Sonnet Project mobile app is the perfect interface for this public-access experience. Users will receive a push notification each time a new video is released, and can watch the video right on their mobile device. They can also click through to learn about what makes that location interesting and historic.
The mapping tool allows the user to see where each location is, and to find other sonnets that were filmed in the vicinity.

This is, hands down, the best Shakespeare app on Android. The project deserves our support. Shakespeare belongs to everyone! These short films shot in NYC will inspire you and break your heart. NOTE: I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and vids play fine.

Tried this app on two different phones and they both get same message when trying to play video. Developer_key_invalid I'll keep watching for an update because I want this to work. Good luck.
