Breaking Pointe

For the first time ever, the beauty and grace of ballet, the world's preeminent dance form, will be brought to television. Viewers will also see the dark side of this seemingly perfect world; the jealousy, competition and intensity that exist behind the scenes at a professional ballet company.

Ronald is torn between staying with his brother Rex at Ballet West or leaving with girlfriend Katie. Ronnie must also make a decision about his contract and turns to his sister and fellow dancers for some much needed advice. Director Adam Sklute sets his dancers to work on a new erotic ballet.

After the grueling final rehearsals, Adam has to decide who will dance the lead roles, leading to major emotional fallout among the dancers. Top Russian choreographer Elena Kunikova trains the dancers and demi-soloist Allison struggles under the pressure.

During rehearsals for their upcoming performances, Allison and Ronnie find themselves struggling, while Beckanne sails through the challenging preparation effortlessly. Meanwhile, Rex has a showdown with Allison when he finally confronts her about their relationship status, and Ronnie's sister comes to Salk Lake City for a visit and to party with the dancers of Ballet West.

Opening night has finally arrived and everyone is beyond stressed. Will Allison be able to tackle the tempos and multiple roles? Will Ronnie live up to expectations on his first ever opening night? How will Rex and Christiana partner on their performance of Paquita?

Everyone is concerned about Rex after his fall on opening night, but the show must go on with closing night and the end of the ballet season right around the corner. Meanwhile, Christiana has a meltdown when her husband Chris quizzes her about life after ballet, and Rex and Allison have a showdown.
