Will Hines was my first improv teacher. He's not an improv nut, but he is, you know? He has perspective. - Ilana Glazer, Broad City
Will is one of those teachers that makes you feel like you have something special inside yourself- that you can possibly change the world. - Abbi Jacobson, Broad City
Despite being a mild mannered man from Connecticut, it's fair to consider Will one of improv's war chiefs, or maybe witch doctors. I'm not sure. This analogy has run its course. -Chris Gethard, The Chris Gethard Show
I haven't improvised in a loooong time, but Will Hines wrote a book that makes me want to. I'm tearing through it - Rich Sommer, Mad Men, UCB improv team America
I read this book - Shannon O'Neill, Artistic Director of UCB NY
