The best advice I can give you is to include as much detail as possible, but remember, it is a summary. This means that you should tell the story in a small paragraph, covering all of the main elements in the play. This sounds like a fun project so have fun with it!

Good luck!

Just tell the story and how it was presented and how you liked it.

yeah, don't be like.

"I liked the play it was good"

use 2-3 sentences covering each topic and you will be fine.
now since this is not a REVIEW butr a summary cover the following topics

How does the play open
what are the series of events in each act?
how does the show wind down
overall impression

You would want include:
main characters
setting
time period
theme
conflicts/resolution
symbolism
You should give an overall feel of the book.

It is alway beneficial to make an outline before writing the paper, I know it sound like extra time an work, but it will shorten the whole process and give you a much more organized paper.
Think of it as similar to a book report.
If you are going to actually watch the play you should ask your teacher if you need to comment on the performance or just what happened in the play.
