Eva Harrington, ragazza di modesta condizione, piena d'entusiasmo per il teatro, riesce, per mezzo di Karen Lloyd, moglie d'un celebre commediografo, ad avvicinare Margo Channing, grande attrice quarantenne, ancora bella e trionfante. Coi suoi modi insinuanti, spacciandosi per la vedova d'un caduto, Eva riesce ad accaparrarsi le simpatie e ad assicurarsi la protezione di Margo, che l'accoglie in casa sua come segretaria. Una sera Margo arriva in ritardo per la recita e trova Eva, che sta leggendo la sua parte. Quando il giornalista Addison De Witt, il regista Bill Simpson e Karen esaltano il talento d'Eva, Margo sente il morso della gelosia. Qualche tempo dopo, Karen, con uno stratagemma, rende impossibile a Margo di partecipare alla recita: Eva la sostituisce ottenendo un successo trionfale.
