Rosie Perez, currently starring in the Manhattan Theatre Club/Second Stage co-production of Craig Lucas' RECKLESS, will be a guest on "The Late Show with David Letterman" tonight, November 4 (11:30 PM WCBS Channel 2 in the New York area).

RECKLESS is directed by Mark Brokaw and also features Olga Merediz, Debra Monk, Michael O'Keefe, Mary-Louise Parker, Thomas Sadoski, and Jeremy Shamos.

It's Christmas Eve, Rachel's (Mary-Louise Parker) son has "fired" her, her husband's put out a contract on her life, and so she's out the window – literally. This bittersweet comedy follows Rachel through a bizarre, fantastic, and sometimes nightmarish journey as she travels across the country, finding "home" with a succession of intimate strangers.

Tickets ($79 - $26) for RECKLESS are available by calling TeleCharge.com at 212-239-6200 or at www.telecharge.com or at the Biltmore Theatre box office (261 West 47th Street).
