"Breaking Pointe"

Posted by udg on 08-07-13 at 08:49 PM
It's like the Real Housewives Ballerinas of Salt Lake City. I could handle more focus on the dance and less on the petty drama, but I'm still watching. Am I the only one?


Thanks to tribephyl for the sigpic!

I had no idea this show existed! I really like it as I am a ballet fan! Other than wanting to shake Allison sometimes I really like the cast. Thanks for the heads up!

I like this too. I caught a few of them last season, so I DVR'd for the season. Ballet is a tough life.

WAY tough! Seniority counts, but not enough for the principals to feel secure. It's physical like athletics, but in a subjective way. There's an acting element, but with relatively few roles to go around. No wonder they're all lushes!

I was disappointed that Ian wasn't offered a contract, especially when the alternative was Zach. I know the director has to look at their skill on stage and is probably less aware of the drama behind the scenes, but as viewers, what we were shown was:

Ian - hardworking, earnest, focused
Zach - gossipy, trouble maker, goof-off

I looked Ian up on Twitter after the show, and he has already started as a corps dancer for the Sarasota Ballet.

Dancer is his name.

It's hard to see Zach has anything more than snarky, comic relief. We must be missing something.
