Matthews and Marner take the stage in The Nutcracker

Last night Toronto Maple Leafs stars Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner took to the stage for their theatre debut, donning colourful costumes in their cameo role as Cannon Dolls for the National Ballet of Canada’s production of The Nutcracker in Toronto.

The production is a longstanding tradition in Toronto and the two young players aren’t the only two Leafs to make a cameo, as former Leafs captain Mats Sundin played the same role back in 2007.
