The only plays witth 2 characters that comes to mind, as I think that is what you are looking for?

Frankie and Johnny at the Clair de Lune. A story about two misfits findling love.
The Chairs - theatre of the absurd at its best.

If you are looking for pieces with only 2 characters that can be done as stand alone pieces I suggest.
Who's afraid of Virgina Wolf [look at the young couple]
When you Coming Back, Red Ryder [the scenes between Angle and Red]
Our Town - [scenes between George and Emily]
Speed the Plow [the scenes between Bobby and Karen]

"The Guys" by Anne Nelson is a fantastic, dramatic play about the effects of 9/11 on a NYC fire captain. The characters are older (40s), but with good acting and minimal make-up, you can pull it off.

It's a very sparse play as far as set goes and has been done as a dramatic reading as well.

Audiences tend to really like it, although it forces them to think about feelings and events they'd rather forget. I did it 2 years ago and it was the best experience of my acting career.

try 'the man who couldn't dance' by jason katims. it's a about a guy visiting the baby of his married friend. as they look at the baby in the crib, they begin to confront the possibilities of them being in a relationship.

phantom of the opera! one of my absolut fav. plays! but yes, pahntom can be played by a boy and a grl named christen dii'a would be played by a grl. and yes it can be played by two people. more if possible, but you would have to double cast.
