City Theatre Austin will present the holiday production of Craig Lucas’ richly inventive comedy, Reckless.

It's Christmas Eve, and Rachel Fitzsimmons' euphoric existence is shattered when she learns her husband has done something recklessly unexpected. She escapes into a snowstorm and is swept away into the most fractured of fairy tales filled with crazed killers, schizophrenic doctors, delusive family members, drunk Santas, crazy co-workers, and outrageous TV personalities … just another holiday season.

Dark and wickedly funny, Reckless is a hilarious and poignant 15-year journey forcing viewers to face head on the slipperiness of fate and the hope of coming home again.
