Bomber with aplomb: football player tackles role in ‘The Nutcracker’ ballet
WINNIPEG — Maurice Leggett is used to wearing tights — on the football field.
Still, a few people were disappointed when the Winnipeg Blue Bomber told them that he won’t be pulling on even tighter tights for his upcoming performance in “The Nutcracker” with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet.
He’ll be wearing a suit.
“I’m like, ‘Well, you get to see me in tights all the time,” he laughs.
