A new special guest will join the The Twenty-Sided Tavern<\/a><\/em> party in late November: Travis McElroy of The Adventure Zone<\/a> <\/em>and My Brother, My Brother and Me<\/em>. McElroy will play The Trickster over seven Thanksgiving week performances.<\/p>\n

Previously<\/a>, Felicia Day (The Guild<\/em>, Dr. Horrible\u2019s Sing-Along Blog<\/em>, and that one Dragon Age 2<\/em> DLC where she just plays herself for some reason) guest-starred back in September. Critical Role and Dimension 20\u2019s Aabria Iyengar<\/a> also made an appearance in late September and early October. And coming in early December, Dropout TV and Dragon Age: The Veilguard<\/em>\u2019s Erika Ishii will join the party.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Twenty-Sided Tavern <\/em>is part D&D actual play, part improv, and part immersive theater. Audiences participate via their phones in determining the fates of the characters on stage. The show runs in New York City and periodically tours the country<\/a>. Tickets are available via the show\u2019s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
