The quick brown fox (that’s Flash!) jumps over the lazy dog (that’s Yon) and into Lettertown, where the lovable letter carriers deliver letters of the alphabet to friends in need. When Chef Jeff at the Lettertown Luncheonette realizes his recipes are missing or when Mell Sellwell at the Rhyme and Dime Store needs help organizing items by rhyme, Flash and Yon roll up in their RV to deliver letters that solve problems and save the day. Along the way, listeners learn that letters make sounds, sounds make words, and words can do anything! With gentle humor, wildly infectious songs, and one-of-a-kind characters, this early literacy musical brings the F-U-N, created by an award-winning writer and composer and performed by Broadway and Second City talent. Kids will explore the foundations of reading through letter sounds, blending, segmenting, and rhyming. Flash and Yon deliver letters to Maestro Melody to finish her big performance song, discover that letters can make more than one sound in Tina and Tanya’s Gardens, and help Chef Jeff by showing how sounds blended together form words. They also team up with Aria and Jazz, the Musician Magicians, to reveal how blending letters makes new sounds. When Ward Smith needs words delivered to Lexi the Librarian, Flash and Yon learn about compound words and join Professor Nestor in his Lettertown Lab to break words into individual sounds. Finally, at the Grand Opening of the Rhyme and Dime Store, they help Mell Sellwell organize by rhymes, then transform into their superhero alter egos, Zap and Nap, to stop the mischievous Eraser who is erasing letters throughout Lettertown—teaching kids that rhymes can be created simply by changing beginning sounds of words.
