When was 'Macbeth' first performed?

In Shakespeare's era the demand for new entertainment was huge, so the play would have been performed immediately following it's completion. With Macbeth this was particularly true, since King James I was extremely interested in sorcery and witchcraft, having written his own book Daemonologie (Demonology) -- Macbeth's success was assured. Shakespeare never published any of his plays, but 18 unauthorised versions of his plays were published during his lifetime (there were no copyright laws in those days). Macbeth was first performed in 1605 and was a huge success.

Which tragedies did William Shakespeare write between 1605 and 1620?

Considering that Shakespeare died in 1616, I can confidently say that he wrote no tragedies from April of 1616 until 1620. As for the tragedies written from 1605-1616, it is a somewhat difficult question to answer. There is little to no evidence to say, conclusively, when the majority of Shakespeare's plays were written. We know when they were published (in many cases after his death) and we have some idea as to when the plays were performed (some plays more than others), but when they were actually written is problematic and in some cases impossible to tell.Having said that, I will do my best. It's reasonable to assume that the plays would have been performed soon after they were written, so a rough idea of the tragedies that appeared from 1605 until 1616 are- Othello (possibly 1604)- King Lear- Macbeth- Antony and Cleopatra- Coriolanus- Timon of Athens- Cymbaline (not considered a tragedy by everyone)


Which of William Shakespeare's plays referred to the Gunpowder Plot of 1605?

Macbeth's references to "equivocators" could be a reference to the defences put up by those accused in the Gunpowder Plot, which they specifically called "equivocating".
