Set against the backdrop of a bustling television studio, the story unfolds through three intricately interwoven plotlines.

Simultaneously, behind the scenes, we delve into the complexities of telenovela production, revealing the amusing interactions and rivalries among the cast and crew.

In addition to the vibrant cast and crew, the studio is ruled by the formidable Doña Beatriz, the diva of the cast. Loved by audiences as the evil villain on screen, she’s also notorious for her mean demeanor off-camera. However, when Doña Beatriz suddenly dies of a heart attack in the dressing room, the director and makeup artist hatch a plan to secretly replace her with Doña María, who bears an uncanny resemblance to the deceased actress. Hesitant at first, Doña María reluctantly agrees to step into the role, setting the stage for a series of uproarious events and unexpected revelations.

As the characters’ dreams and aspirations entwine with the telenovela plot they’re crafting, the creative process unfolds with both hilarity and depth. The musical numbers accentuate key moments, including the unexpected romance between makeup artist Javier Ernesto and the young lead actress Cinde, leading to surprising revelations and uproarious misunderstandings.
