About this quiz
Seven years after Shakespeare's death, two of his fellow actors gathered 36 of his plays into the First Folio of 1623, sorted into comedies, histories and tragedies.
- Eighteen of the plays had never been printed before the First Folio, including Macbeth and The Tempest.
- Troilus and Cressida was added late and does not appear in the Folio's own list of contents.
- Pericles and The Two Noble Kinsmen, now counted as Shakespeare's work, are not in the First Folio.
- The Tempest is the first play in the book.
