Farkas Hall

Farkas Hall was designed in 1887 as the clubhouse and theater for the Hasty Pudding Club, and the Hasty Pudding Theatricals put on their musical in this 274-seat room. Harvard’s Theatre, Dance, and Media program uses the stage for student work too. The entrance is at 12 Holyoke Street in Harvard Square.

This fall the American Repertory Theater is in the pudding’s room. From October 27 through November 22 it presents 1972, a world-premiere rock opera by Chadwick Stokes of Dispatch and State Radio and by Jessie Nelson, who wrote the book for Waitress. The story follows Hannah to the Janes, the underground group that helped women get an abortion when it was illegal.
