The case for Oxford's authorship is based on purported similarities between Oxford's biography and events in Shakespeare's plays, sonnets and longer poems; parallels of language, idiom, and thought between Oxford's letters and the Shakespearean canon; and marked passages in Oxford's Bible that appear in some form in Shakespeare's plays. Oxfordians point to the acclaim of Oxford's contemporaries regarding his talent as a poet and a playwright, the theory that he was a concealed poet, and his connections to London theatre and the contemporary playwrights of Shakespeare's day. They also note his long term relationships with Queen Elizabeth I and the Earl of Southampton, his knowledge of Court life, his private tutors and education, his academic and cultural patronage and his wide-ranging travels through the locations of Shakespeare's plays in France and Italy.

Though Oxford died in 1604 before 10 of the plays were performed or published according to the generally accepted Stratfordian chronology, Oxfordians point to 1604 as the year regular annual publication of new Shakespeare plays, and "newly augmented" and "corrected" plays, stopped being printed, and say that some literary allusions to Shakespeare imply that the writer died before 1609. Consequently, they date some of the plays earlier and suggest that other late plays, which show evidence of revision and collaboration, were left unfinished by Oxford and completed by other playwrights and released after his death.
