Back in a day, a friend of mine and I created some acronyms of our own, just for sport. Yes, we did need to get out more. Nonetheless, we imagined a politically correct, gay friendly, educational theatre group that would tour the country, performing paeans to tolerance. Something Harvey Fierstein might be involved with.
