When Will and Kevin Hines perform together as the Brothers Hines, they aren’t just attempting to capitalize on the success of sibling comedy teams through the ages (or, as it were, the success of dancing brothers Gregory and Maurice Hines). They’re actually blood relatives, which I asked them to confirm, much to their befuddlement.
“Growing up we watched the same shows and movies,” Kevin says. “If something makes one of us laugh, it’s going to make both of us laugh.”
“It’s friendly competition,” Kevin adds. “I want New York to [have] the best improv comedy because that’s where I am. When people come from Chicago they’re great, and we’re happy we stole them away.”
