The Scope & Scalpel Society is a fourth-year drama society created in 1955. Each year, Scope & Scalpel produces a spoof play on the weekend before graduation. Past productions have included "Coldfinger" in 1965, "The Sound of Mucus" in 1974, "Back to the Suture" in 1990 and this year’’s 50th Anniversary production entitled ""Lasix: Unloaded.. The senior class writes, directs, and produces the play, which typically lampoons the trials and tribulations of four years of medical school in Pittsburgh. Scope & Scalpel is the largest amateur performance in Western Pennsylvania and the longest running production in Pittsburgh.
Talent is welcome from all four classes in the areas of band, stage crew, lighting and sound, technical assistance, costumes and props. To join in the fun and to gain experience for your own Scope & Scalpel production, volunteer! The producers will solicit help in the spring.
