Synopsis:
Adapted from the story by Mary Orr on which the film All About Eve and the musical Applause were based, The Wisdom of Eve is an engrossing and revealing ‘inside’ story of life in New York’s theatre world, told in terms of an unscrupulous ingenue’s rise to Broadway stardom. When we first meet Eve Harrington, she is standing in the rain by the stage door of the theatre in which the renowned Margo Crane is starring in her latest long-run hit. As Eve begins to move ahead in earnest, her true character emerges as she lies, cheats, and blackmails her way to Broadway stardom-and then a Hollywood career-leaving the wreckage of her friends’ trust behind her.
