I've just read the Shakeapeare Biography by Bill Bryson, and in the last chapter he devotes himself to this topic of the real writer of Shakespeare's plays. In the end, he says that there is no reason to doubt that William Shakespeare wrote these plays. A lot of other playwrights at the time are hardly known now. We know more about Shakespeare than some others, and nobody doubts the authorship of their works. All of the claims as to the other authors being the real ones are just speculations and conjecture, backed up by no evidence at all. Shakespeare was alive, as his signatures and other documents suggest, and there is no reason to doubt whether he was the true author or not. In his time as well, there was no dispute whether he was the true author, and it would have to be a monumental cover up if he was not; he did write the plays.
