Our final story this season is so good, you'll want to stay up all night enjoying it. But get your rest, we'll still be here tomorrow night to keep the story (and ourselves) alive. Sound familiar? We're joined by actor/comedian Tara Egan for an incredibly nerdy exploration of the history and themes of Arabic folktales, the frame narrative and the infamous compilation: One Thousand and One Nights. While this may be our SEASON 4 FINALE, much like our protagonist Scheherazade, Shared History will live to see another day and tell another story.

More on Tara:

Tara Egan is a comedian and actress based in Chicago. When she’s not on stage, Tara is traveling the world and eating all of the good food. You can usually catch her performing all around Chicago, but at present, anyone in the world could watch her perform with ComedySportz Chicago on their live, free, virtual improv shows at Twitch.tv/CSZNChicago.

The Scarlet Pirate (feat Tara) be playing at 7:30 PM on Sunday August 15th at the iconic Music Box Theater Garden. Oh and taraegan.com is set to launch this summer so keep an eye out!
