The first reference to Shakespeare as a playwright is in Greene' Groatsworth of Wit in 1592. The play referred to is Henry VI part 3. So we know that Shakespeare must have been writing for some time before then. If we assume 1590 (it's just a guess, but an educated one) as a date when he may have started writing, he was 26 in that year.

William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in England in about 1564. His exact date of birth is unknown. Again the exact date when he began writing is unknown, but is believed to be about 1590. Some of his work had been published in London, England by 1592. There are no plays attributed to him after 1613 and he died on 23rd April 1616.

As with so many aspects of Shakespeare's life, the exact date when he began writing is not known.

It is thought that he was still living in Stratford-Upon-Avon in 1585, and from then until 1592, there is no evidence of his whereabouts or activities; this period is known as "Shakespeare's Lost Years."

In due course he entered the entertainment business. He became an actor, a writer and a joint-owner of a theater company. There is a mention of one of his plays (a criticism) published in London in 1592, so all that can be said is is that he had started his writing career before then. Plays attributed to him were being performed on the stage by 1592, but little is known of what he did in the years between 1585 and 1592.

Shakespeare had began his career on the stage by 1592 , because there is a surviving document by Robert Greene' Groatsworth. It is probable that Shakespeare played the title role in Edward I ( a play by Edward Peele) in 1593 . It is also assumed that Shakespeare played smaller roles in a variety of his own plays , including As You Like It (Adam) , Macbeth (King Duncan), Henry IV ( King Henry), and Hamlet (Hamlet's father ).

Nobody knows exactly. The first time someone appears to have noticed that he was writing plays was in 1592, but he had probably written a couple before then.
