The Audio Shakespeare Pronunciation App is designed for actors, directors, students, professors, theater arts classes and anyone who studies or performs the plays of Shakespeare.
The ONLY Complete Audio Shakespeare Pronunciation APP.
The creators of the Shakespeare Pronunciation app are Shane Ann Younts and Louis Scheeder. Shane Ann is an Associate Arts professor at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in the Graduate Acting program. She teaches voice and text classes and specializes in applying the voice/text work to Shakespeare’s plays.
Louis was formerly an Arts Professor at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and the Director of the Undergraduate Drama’s Classical Studio where he taught acting and directed productions of Shakespeare.
“Anyone who has dedicated numerous rehearsal hours to explore and prepare for a production of Shakespeare will be delighted that this useful tool, painstakingly put together by Louis Scheeder and Shane Ann Younts, is available. Their comprehensive pronunciation dictionary blends thorough academic expertise with the practicalities of helping actors navigate the splendidly perilous ocean of Shakespeare’s language so that the actors can satisfy Hamlet’s request to speak their speeches ‘trippingly on the tongue’.”Joe Dowling, Former Artistic Director of the Guthrie Theater
