Star Wars by Peter Foster has couples from each line go out and star
with couples from the next line. Does that count?

counting four face fours (aka mescolanzas, double countras) I know of
three dances that 'transgress' in some form or another:
* Out of Bounds*, Will Mentor
* Becket's Crossing, Chris Kermiet
* New and Improved, Super Ultra Snake Oil #9* (seth's riff from) Roger
Diggle
What others are out there?

*Technically these are 'minor' transgressions since they only go over to
the other line and then come back. Still, they are 'crossing the line'!

Will's Out of Bounds is a fun idea that has two versions. One is
A1. 8 Slide L and circle L ¾
8 Neighbor swing
A2. 8 Ladies chain to partner
8 Square through three and face out
B1. 8 Long lines forward and back
(1)
8 Between sets star L ¾
B2. 6 Ladies allemande R
10 Partner swing
The other is to replace the B1 with a hey (LR, NL, GR, PL) between sets. The F&B
gives couples a chance to realign for the star, while the hey will produce heys of 2, 4,
6, and other forms of chaos. Teaching tip; those ladies who allemande in B2 are the same
ones who chained in A2, which helps clean up any unwanted confusion. This is also best
with many short sets - that minimizes the time those at the far sides face no one - Bob
