All About Eve - 196_(7?)
adapted into Applause, which won the Tony Award for Best Musical for 1970. (and it's nowhere near the calibre of the film...in fact, it's really not that good. The score borders on plain awful)
Rent the film out, You'll certainly enjoy it!
The lead is Margo Channing (ring any bells) who is a famous Broadway Star, who ends up being usurped by a Girl, Eve Harrington, who started out as miserable Urchin that gets taken into Ms. Channings dressing room after Opening Night of her hit new play. Eve soon contrives to control Margo's life, gets cast as her understudy, then organises Margo to be stuck out of town so she will have to go on, and contacts the press.
Margo has a very...interesting...temperament. That is what I was hinting at to Lael, my drama queen.
