https://frankbarret.com/Ball-in-Stall Sat, 22 Apr 2023 15:23:34 +0000 frankbarret.com https://frankbarret.com/Ball-in-Stall Ball in Stall The rules of the game are:1. Two people must play2. All players must be trans3. The game must take place in a public bathroom with sign posted on door4. Stalls must be locked5. Players must pass the ball back and forth6. Players must keep the ball in the air as long as possible7. The ball must be red8. Players must wear red shorts9. An audience is optional10. Players must continue until a player has to use the bathroom Created by Sarah Hill and Frank Barret, 2021&nbsp; Ball in stall is a durational performance created by Sarah Hill and Frank Barret that can take place in any local bathroom where establishment allows. We are two trans individuals seeking to take back the public bathroom as a site of joy. As trans people who have experienced harassment in bathrooms this action of taking up space in a public bathroom via the format of a game with rules creates safety and agency in an otherwise hostile environment. We chose to play Ball in Stall with a dodgeball because entering a bathroom as a trans person feels a lot like playing dodgeball.
