In the First Folio of Shakespeare's plays, he is listed as one of the actors which performed his plays, but that doesn't mean that he performed in all of them (although he probably did). He may have retired from acting before he retired from playwriting. The only plays we know absolutely and for certain that Shakespeare acted in are Jonson's Sejanus and Every Man in his Humour.
