Yes. A play is a major work, like a novel, so the title should be underlined, unless the play is a fairly short work, such as a one scene long tribute to another work. This would be too short to be considered a major play, so the title would be put in quotes. A play such as Shakespeare's Othello would be underlined or italicized, due to its length.
