When it comes to those rare few who are lucky enough to achieve their dreams of playing or performing at the highest level, people want to know one thing more than any other: How did you make it here? How did you defy the odds to get the chance that so, so many dream of but so, so few get?
How did you break through?

Each episode of Breaking Through will focus on a different icon who has managed to rise above and achieve greatness.
