Why don't you find a modern play, or one written in the last century? They are generally easier to read because the language is modern. Some suggestions:
"A Taste of Honey" by Shelagh Delaney
"An Inspector Calls" by J.B. Priestley

My advice would be to get a sound recording of any shakespeare plays . Ir is much easier to read along with any of them. The inflection is very clear. Even better get a classic production of Hamlet with Lawrence olivier and follow along visually as well. Be careful you don't get one that has been modified though, it will make it difficult to follow.
