Tom Stoppard has written The Fifteen Minute Hamlet, which is about as abridged as you can get. It is available on Amazon. A performance of it can be found on YouTube.
An even shorter abridgement can be found in the book One-Page Shakespeare by Mason D. Jardine. It's one page long and can be performed in about five minutes. The book is available at McNally Robinson booksellers.

∙ 13y agoJust how abridged do you want them? Tom Stoppard has written an abridgement of Hamlet called the Fifteen-Minute Hamlet which is readily available.
Here, for free, is a very abridged version of Macbeth:
Witch: Thou shalt be king hereafter.
Macbeth: We shall proceed no further in this business
Lady Macbeth: If thou wert a man then thou durst do it.
Macbeth kills Duncan, crowns himself
Banquo: And methinks thou played most foully for it
Macbeth kills Banquo
Witch: Macbeth! Beware Macduff!
Macbeth: His castle I'll surprise.
Macbeth slaughters Macduff's wife and children.
Macduff: What, all my pretty chickens and their dam in one swoop? Turn, hell-hound, turn!
Macbeth: Lay on, Macduff!
Macduff beheads Macbeth.
