Nobody can be exactly sure which plays were written when, or what order they were written in. There are some clues which usually tell us that a certain play must have been written before a certain date, when it was seen by someone, or put in the Stationer's Register, or commented on, or printed in book form. But these clues give us only a date before which the play must have been written, not the date it was written on.

Scholars have put together many lists of the order in which Shakespeare's plays were written. They are all different from each other. There is no way to know which if any is right, or which was Shakespeare's first, second, third or last play.
