The Hasty Pudding Theatricals, the oldest theatrical organization in the United States, announces Emmy, Tony, Grammy-winning and 2x Oscar nominee CYNTHIA ERIVO as the recipient of its 2025 Woman of the Year Award. From her iconic performances in Harriet and Broadway’s The Color Purple, to her recently critically acclaimed role as Elphaba in Universal’s Wicked: Part One, the Pudding is proud to celebrate her truly unique and impactful presence in the world of entertainment.
The Woman of the Year Award is the Hasty Pudding Theatricals’ oldest honor, bestowed annually on performers who have made lasting and impressive contributions to the world of entertainment. Established in 1951, the Woman of the Year Award has been given to many notable and talented entertainers including Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway, Kerry Washington, and most recently Annette Bening, the 74th Woman of the Year. The Hasty Pudding Theatricals is a program of The Hasty Pudding – Institute of 1770.
The Hasty Pudding Theatricals will host a celebratory roast for Ms. Erivo on February 5th at 7:00pm, after which she will be presented with her Pudding Pot at Farkas Hall, the Hasty Pudding’s historic home in Harvard Square since 1888. A press conference will follow the presentation at 7:20pm. Afterwards, Ms. Erivo will attend a performance of the Hasty Pudding Theatricals’ 176th production, 101 Damnations.
