“What's so great about working with Hayley is watching her fearlessly dive head-first into a role, without losing the spirit or the importance of collaborating with her fellow artists. I know that when I work with her, I can expect to push and be pushed to make a show better, and always with a laugh. When I was talking about working on Exit: Pursued by a Bear, Hayley was the only name that came up because we (Kate, the director and myself) knew she would be a great foil and work well with the rest of the cast.”
— Amanda Van Allen, Actor
“Working with Hayley was an absolute pleasure. Joining a project such as a 48-hour can be a lot to take on, especially as a lead, and she pulled it off and then some.”
— Nick Muhlbach, Director, Producer, Editor
“Hayley is a consummate professional: hardworking and dignified, she is the kind of actor that makes directing easy. She also isn’t afraid to take leaps and try new things— evidenced by her myriad credits spanning from new works to film to Shakespeare. I was especially impressed by her work as Don Pedro in my production of Much Ado About Nothing. It was Hayley’s first time performing Shakespeare, but she took to it like a duck to water. Furthermore, she embraced the unique challenge of playing a male role with a delightful sense of humor, great gusto, and a profound sense of grace. I would work with her again in a heartbeat!”
— Casey Venema, Director
