Harvard's Hasty Pudding casts first women in 175 years

Harvard University's Hasty Pudding theatre troupe has cast its first women after nearly two centuries of all-male productions.

The group says six women have been chosen to perform in the 2019 show, accounting for half the cast.

New cast member Ashley LaLonde says she's especially proud to be the first black woman in the cast, adding, "We really are making history."
