Hamlet's age in the play is ambiguous. In the First Folio he is 16-20 years old, not 30. Later adaptations have him as 30, but that conveniently matched the age of the Richard Burbage who played Hamlet in Shakespeare's day. Most people agree hamlet's supposed to be in his teens and the script was changed to fit the actors after.
You should do taming of the shrew. Some people get confused with play because of some of the plotline and the major character switches and disguises and with how you summarize things makes it funny and helpful.
@drakeCridge No, in the play they are adults. The Gravedigger says that he has been in his profession since the day that Old Hamlet defeated Old Fortinbras, which was "the very day that young Hamlet was born." Then, a little later, he adds that "I have been sexton here, man and boy, thirty years." According to this logic, Hamlet must be thirty years old - he is an emo adult not an emo teen.
@AwesomeAznBoy25 Good call. Hadn't crossed my mind and then you mentioned this. Lots of people had to read this, plus it'd be fun and easy to summarize. Added to the list. If you dug the High School Summary videos, you might want to check out my first book. It's called Crazy Girls and is for sale on Amazon for less than a dollar.
@lifeDotGov Great Gatsby is in the works actually. Look for it in the next month or two. Metamorphisis is very internalized, not sure if it would make a great plot summary. In the mean time, you might want to check out my first book. It's called Crazy Girls. Costs less than a dollar. For sale on Amazon.
@RUTKN2ME92 Huck Finn is in the works. Next few months, I'm hoping. Clockwork Orange see the movie. Scarlet Letter, see Easy A. I'll look into the others. If you dug the High School Summary videos, you might want to check out my first book. It's called Crazy Girls and is for sale on Amazon for less than a dollar.
@TheMattWiseman That's a lot of Shakespeare. Romeo and Juliet would probably trump that, but I'll think about it. If you dug the High School Summary videos, you might want to check out my first book. It's called Crazy Girls and is for sale on Amazon for less than a dollar.
@duderude Definitely. Look for this one in the next couple of months. If you dug the High School Summary videos, you might want to check out my first book. It's called Crazy Girls and is for sale on Amazon for less than a dollar.
@yennster57 Both good ideas. Already have two Shakespeare titles done, but R&J would be next. If you dug the High School Summary videos, you might want to check out my first book. It's called Crazy Girls and is for sale on Amazon for less than a dollar.
@Xboxlover806 Thought about this, but I like to reread the books before I summarize. It's like 2800 pages, to get that into 3 minutes? Hard to please, Internet.

@ml962 War and Peace would be good. I mean, come on, its probably the most famous book nobody has EVER read. Also, you could do War of the Worlds.
