The Eagles of Broomfield – Austin Jensen
February 20, 2018
“The change from basketball to theater was very drastic. There was a huge community difference. Personally, I thought the theatre department was a lot more accepting to someone joining who hasn’t done anything like it. If a theatre person who has never played basketball went to join the basketball team, I don’t believe the basketball team would be as accepting… well I think they would be, but they would be a lot more judgmental, unlike how the theatre department was to me. I’m definitely having a lot more fun in theatre than I was in basketball. It’s a lot more freedom and so much fun to explore different personalities and see smiles on everyone’s faces. It’s a sort of freedom you can’t really describe… when I walk into the theatre room, I smile because it’s a community that I joined that I never thought I would join. But it’s absolutely fantastic.”
