Sigourney Weaver and Kevin Kline have been named the Hasty Pudding Woman and Man of the Year.

The Hasty Pudding parade in honor of Weaver will be held Monday, Feb. 9. The route will wind through the streets of Harvard Square starting at 2 p.m. and the actress will receive her "Pudding Pot" afterward in the Hasty Pudding Theater.

Kline will be the guest of honor on Tuesday, Feb. 17, prior to the start of the opening night performance of the Hasty Pudding Theatricals' 150th production, Paradise Lost-and-Found.

The "Woman and Man of the Year" awards are presented annually by the Hasty Pudding Theatricals, the nation's oldest dramatic organization, to performers who have made a "lasting and impressive contribution to the world of entertainment." Established in 1951, the "Woman of the Year" award has been granted to many talented and distinguished entertainers including Katharine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Meryl Streep, Sally Field, Glenn Close, Jodie Foster, Meg Ryan, Susan Sarandon, and Julia Roberts. The "Man of the Year" award was established in 1963 and includes among its list of past recipients such Hollywood notables as Paul Newman, Robert Redford, John Travolta, Robert DeNiro, Steven Spielberg, Robin Williams, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, and Mel Gibson.

Sigourney Weaver has had a distinguished career, with major roles in both critically and popularly acclaimed films. She is an accomplished thespian and received a Tony award for Hurlyburly. She is perhaps better known to audiences as Ripley, the heroine of Alien and its three sequels. Weaver has been nominated for an Academy Award three times and won two Golden Globe awards in 1988 for performances in Gorillas in the Mist and Working Girl. Other credits include The Year of Living Dangerously, Ghostbusters, 1492: Conquest of Paradise, Dave, and Copycat. Most recently Weaver starred in Alien Resurrection and The Ice Storm, for which she received her fourth Golden Globe nomination.

Kevin Kline is critically acclaimed for his work in theater as well as film. He started his career on the stage, where he won a Tony in 1978 for On the Twentieth Century and another two years later for The Pirates of Penzance. His breakthrough film performance was Sophie's Choice, for which he received a Golden Globe nomination. He then went on to star in such films as The Big Chill and Cry Freedom. In 1988, Kline won the Academy Award for best supporting actor as the manic Otto West in A Fish Called Wanda. He continued to commute between stage and screen, and his production of Hamlet received no fewer than five Drama Desk nominations. Subsequent film credits include Dave, French Kiss, and Fierce Creatures. Most recently Kline starred in The Ice Storm and In & Out, for which he received his fourth Golden Globe nomination.
