Hi! I was a blue coat F.O.H at the Cambridge Theatre in London, it starred Ron Moody, he was fantastic in the roll and you could clearly see that he enjoyed playing such a famous character. brilliant!
Finally read the libretto. Apples and Pears is the name of a tavern that Holmes (in disguise) is at while spying on Bella Spellgrove. He is teaching her the finer points of the Cockney Language. Ergo all the cockney slang in the song.
Ah this is an amazing soundtrack. Never seen the play myself, but I have the music from itunes on my ipod and listen to it almost everyday. Have you ever seen it? I've always wondered what bearing "Apple's n' Pears" had on the story.
I'll let you know what Apples n Pears is about in a few days. I've just licensed the show and will be staging it soon. Rehearsal highlights to be posted, if allowed.
Thank you very much for uploading is wonderful.
