Richard Garriott talks of SPACE - One Day Only at the Zach Scott!

A true veteran of the computer gaming industry, Richard Garriott is best known for creating and publishing the best-selling Ultima series, including the first commercially successful online game, Ultima Online. His career spans more than two decades, and has awarded him the titles “Designer of the Year” and “Entrepreneur of the Year” by industry leaders. In a market that now rivals the movie industry in popularity, Richard Garriott is one of the few well-known "stars”.

After recently attending a speaking engagement at Cambridge as the guest of Stephen Hawking, Richard Garriott has returned to Austin for a special presentation at ZACH. Listen as he shares his amazing experiences in space, including artifacts and photos from his private collection, plus videos on facets of space travel never seen before! There will be a Q&A session with the audience included in the presentation. This is a rare opportunity to hear first-hand accounts of space travel by a masterful storyteller. Great fun for all ages! Special youth discounts available. All proceeds benefit ZACH Theatre and its education programs.
