If you are over a certain age and you grew up in Columbus, there's a good chance that you remember visiting the iconic AmeriFlora. The massive horticulture exhibition had over 5 million visitors and changed Franklin Park forever. This video has all the 1990s vibes, from the perms to the fanny packs.

Sponsored by Columbus Immersive TheatreStrap on your fishnets, buy your prop bags, and get ready for a raucous night of irreverent fun. This cult musical is a humorous tribute to the sci-fi and horror B movies of the 1930s through to the early 1960s. The musical tells the story of a newly engaged couple getting caught in a storm and coming to the home of a mad transvestite scientist, Dr Frank-N-Furter.
