The list is extensive. In the best chronological order available, Shakespeare wrote Henry VI, Part One, Henry VI, Part Two.

Surprisingly, Shakespeare is said to have penned Henry VIII with the likely help of noted dramatist John Fletcher between 1612 and 1613. The Two Noble Kinsmen, composed in 1613 is credited in a 1634 Stationer’s Registry entry as being the work of both William Shakespeare and John Fletcher. See similar questions...

A major controversy today is brewing over this very contentious issue. The traditional camp maintains that William Shakespeare was indeed a poet, playwright and an actor. Critics known as "Oxfordians" argue that a more likely contender may have been Edward de Ver (1550-1604) whom T.J. See similar questions...

It is believed that Shakespeare penned his first play Henry VI, Part One, between 1589 and 1590. Shakespeare would have been 25 at the time. This play is believed to have been performed at The Rose Theatre in London. See similar questions...

These days I'm concentrating on my fiction. But I still take notes for plays I hope to write. Making stories for the stage is a unique thrill—a lively and noisy collaborative process. I became the writer I am by first working as an actor, playwright and director. Those experiences taught me about plotting, pacing, character development, dialogue and sensory impact. I love live theatre! See similar questions...

With 37 plays under his belt, it is hard to place some plays above others. Nonetheless, most academics and readers alike would agree that Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, The Merchant of Venice, A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream, King Henry V, King Lear, Macbeth , Othello and Antony and Cleopatra are amongst Shakespeare’s most recognizable and hence most popular plays. In 1609, Shakespeare’s sonnets were published without the Bard’s permission. See similar questions...

Quite a few. Over 300 adaptations dating from as early as the 1930s have been recorded as being adaptations of Shakespeare’s plays. Recently both Hamlet, A Midsummer’s Night and Romeo and Juliet have been successfully adapted to film. See similar questions...

Yes. He did not literally lose it in a park or on his travels. The play Cardenio, though written and performed in Shakespeare’s time has not been recorded in the First Folio of 1623 as were Shakespeare’s other plays. Cardenio has been lost to time for the modern reader. See similar questions...

Eight, including twins Judith and Hamnet. Hamnet did not survive to adulthood. Susanna his first daughter lived a very ripe 66 years and Judith lived a very respectable 77 years. Shakespeare only lived to 52. See similar questions...

Described by First Folio publishers John Hemminges and Henry Condell who said "His mind and hand went together and what he thought, he uttered with that easiness that we have scarce received from him a blot in his papers.", there were many who did not like Shakespeare’s work.

Answer. Apart from his professional works (in which no one is really interested) he produced a number of prophetic works. We discern between the Centuries and the Prognostications. The Prognostications are like an Almanac. They contain a series of Predictions about the next year. Because these predictions were fulfilled (or not) more than 440 years ago few are interested in them. The really interesting stuff is the Centuries. See similar questions...

The composition process was most often separate in the physical sense, especially in the early stages of a song. But almost each song underwent a metamorphosis in the recording studio, when John and Paul would give each other "helpful" suggestions on completing a tune. Sometimes one or the other was stuck for an eight-bar middle, or a guitar riff, and the other would fill in. See similar questions...

My first work for them was sadly never published; I wrote a 125,000 word campaign setting as part of their 2002 Fantasy Setting Search. After that, I designed a dozen or so monsters for Monster Manual III. My next published project will be the Eberron Explorer's Handbook, due out in the Summer of 2005. Top See similar questions...

Dan: I thought of the first verse of Closing Time pretty much all at once while playing the guitar. The chorus too (it's only one line). I was trying to write a song for the end of our sets, to say, "Goodnight, get out, we love you but we're done," to the fans. But it turned into something else, the first verse about times I've been in a bar at the end of the night trying to get up the courage to talk to a woman. See similar questions...
