Cathy, Vivian, and Marsha--three roommates bored with studying--leave college to find show business careers in New York City. They find lodgings in a boardinghouse operated by a model who poses for nudist magazines and begin to look for work. Cathy meets and is seduced by a theatrical agent. He then passes her on to a cabaret owner who hires her as a belly dancer. Vivian and Marsha meet the Cobbs at a wild house party. Ronnie Cobb, willing to teach dance routines to Vivian, makes lesbian advances toward her, which Vivian rejects. Marsha falls in love with Paul, Ronnie's husband and a theatrical producer, but their affair ends when Marsha learns that Paul has offered her as sexual bait to a potential backer of his new show.
