Plays? I can imagine an improv troupe pausing at crucial junctures to poll the audience which way the story should go, but I have trouble imagining a scripted play that worked anything like this. For your main question, sorry, I can't think of any examples earlier than the 70s, which would make the book genre almost simultaneous with Adventure and its ilk.
And speaking of choose-your-own-adventure books, you know the story that Steve Jackson wrote one of these, becoming the first author to publish anonymously under his own name?
