A rotable shower expander rod assembly is herein described, for a shower stall or tub enclosure having an access opening for the ingress and egress of the user, and which includes a curved rotable shower expander rod, two retaining rings, two fasteners or set screws, and two detents, each with a spring and ball bearing, so as to have two fixed, yet movable positions, a shower bar or tension rod, and a shower curtain or liner. And, wherein the function of the rotable shower expander rod assembly is to reconfigure and repurpose a straight shower rod into a curved shower rod that is rotable, so that when the rod portion of the assembly is rotated outward to the first or operable position, it comes into contact with a shower curtain and moves it away from the shower area, thereby greatly increasing usable shower space for the comfort of the user. The rotable shower expander rod assembly also has an additional function. When rotated into the second or nonuse position it serves as a rod from which to hang wet items from, so that they may drip dry, and the excess water runs safely down into the shower or tub basin to drain.
