The CW Premieres New Reality Series BREAKING POINTE Tonight, 5/31

The CW Network previously announced the premiere date for a  new original reality series for summer 2012: BREAKING POINTE, an inside look at the competitive world of ballet premieres tonight, May 31 (8:00-9:00pm ET).

BREAKING POINTE goes behind the stage curtain for an intense, unfiltered look at one of the most competitive ballet companies in the country, Ballet West, in Salt Lake City, Utah. Beneath the beauty and glamour of the dance and costumes is a gritty dog-eat-dog world of extreme athleticism, focus, dedication, passion, pressure and, of course, the hunt for the unattainable... perfection. BREAKING POINTE is produced by BBC Worldwide Productions. Kate Shepherd ("Big Brother," "Wife Swap") is executive producer. Izzie Pick Ashcroft ("Dancing with the Stars") and Jane Tranter ("Top Gear," "Dancing with the Stars," "Torchwood") are executive producers for BBC Worldwide Productions.

Beginning Monday, June 4, weekly encores of both new reality shows (including THE CATALINA) will air on Mondays, with BREAKING POINTE airing 8:00-9:00pm and THE CATALINA airing 9:00-10:00pm.
