When was William shakespeare last appearance?

No-one really knows his last appearance, but his last play was The Tempest. It has some symbolism at the end of it, as one of the main characters, Prospero is a magician, and at the end of the play, he breaks his wand and throws his books into the sea. This may symbolise Shakespeare breaking his quill, and throwing away his parchment, as The Tempest was the last thing he ever wrote. This hidden symbolism shows what a genius he was. Hope this helps! :)
