Title
1979 Scope and Scalpel "Smegma House" Excerpt
Description
Excerpt from the 1979 production of Scope and Scalpel "Smegma House." Scope and Scalpel is a drama society of the fourth year students at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. It was formed in 1955 and to this day it carries on the tradition started by Dr. Musgrave and Dr. Felix "Bebe" Miller to produce a show in which they laugh at their profession, their school, and themselves. Each year, a week before graduation, a new Scope and Scalpel is presented. It is the largest and the longest running nonprofessional theatrical production in Pittsburgh.

This excerpt features "Little White Coat," a song from Act II, Scene 2. In this scene, medical students celebrate the long-awaited arrival of their doctor's white coats.
