Book, lyrics and music by David Wood
12 characters (doubling possible), extras.
The Salamander, a sort of dragon, is in trouble with the Fireflies because he is unable to create a fire. To redeem himself he is sent on a mission to burn down Papertown. The townspeople gather their resources to meet the threat: even the two petty criminals. Blotch and Carbon, are released to join the forces. In the end Salamander, who has fallen for timid little Tishoo, joins the inhabitants in thwarting the Fireflies, and Papertown is saved from destruction.
