Shakespeare's Plays in Chronological Order


Someone asked today what Shakespeare's first play was. I couldn't remember, but now I know--having looked up the answer on Shakespeare Online. No one knows which was the first play he wrote, but certainly Romeo and Juliet was one of the earliest written. The first performed, though, was Henry VI, Part II.

Why wouldn't Henry VI, Part II be performed first? hmm...
