Musical Theatre

The musical “Apple and Pear” consists of three scenarios across different times and spaces, namely, ancient Oriental, medieval European, and contemporary Chinese. The love between the hero and heroin is the most obvious theme that links the three scenarios. It is also true that the eternal longing for morality, happiness, and justice in human nature is what really behind these stories, and makes them so real, despite of the same truth of human sinfulness which prevents the ideals from being realized. Still, it is these noble longings innate in the soul of human kind that make human being human, and make human lives worth of living. As long as human kind exists, the stories of this kind will continue.
