The Hasty Pudding Theatricals is a Harvard student organization made up of over 50 Harvard undergrads. The company is broken down into five parts: Band, Business Staff, Cast, Creative, & Tech. Joining the Pudding was the best decision I made at Harvard and I could not imagine college without it. You should comp too.
General Hasty Pudding Comp meetings have ended for Fall 2020, but be on the lookout for oppurtunities to comp in the spring and next year! For more information please feel free to reach out to a member of our executive board!
Details: Band seeks out talented and fun individuals to fill our 11 person group. We hold independent auditions run by our Band VP and Musical Director. Auditions consist of a prepared piece, sight reading, and improvisation.

Details: Our comp is the longest of the Pudding comps, but is also the most rewarding. Our Business Staff consists of 12 incredibly close members, each with an individual position. Together, they manage all the company's finances, ticket sales, ad sales, tour to Bermuda, and much more. So, while the comp is filled with social events and other fun activities, it is also an unparalleled professional experience. Try it out and see if it's right for you!
When: The comp spans both first and second semesters. Compers are welcome to join at any time! We have many members who did not even join the comp until the Spring.

Details: Cast is objectively the most fun part of the company. We hold auditions every year run by our Cast VP, authors, and director for the twelve spots on cast. Performing in the Hasty Pudding is one of the most intense and rewarding creative experiences on Harvard’s campus.
