a golden shower of trans becoming
![]()
Susan Stryker’s Hot Tub is a trans fairy tale where Cinderella wants to be a horse, Frankenstein's Monster renovates San Francisco dungeons, and two sad trans boys dispense wisdom while gazing into reflective surfaces. When golden tickets, magic horses, and a transphobic coach collide at trans historian Susan Stryker’s legendary hot tub, everyone discovers the transformative power of ancestral waters, collective piss play, and the revolutionary truth that inside every trans person is a horse champing at the bit.
A horseplay piss play for Mother, featuring Olympic swirls by poet Ari Banias.
