Wikipedia, May 1, 2014 (Love's Labour's Lost is one of William Shakespeare's early comedies, believed to have been written in the mid-1590s for a performance at the Inns of Court before Queen Elizabeth; though first published in quarto in 1598, the play's title page suggests a revision of an earlier version of the play; earliest recorded performance of the play occurred at Christmas in 1597 at the Court before Queen Elizabeth; most modern scholars believe the play was written in 1595 or 1596)
SparkNotes website, May 1, 2014 (Love's Labour's Lost is one of Shakespeare's earlier plays, published in 1598 and probably written in 1594-5. It was included as a comedy in Shakespeare's First Folio.)
