A Two-Hour Tour
Let’s get the title out of the way first. The word “posh” supposedly derives from an acronym for “Port Out, Starboard Home,” indicating the most desirable accommodations aboard ships from England to India and back. Merriam-Webster, for one, doesn’t buy that etymology at all, but in any case that’s the relatively simple explanation for the seemingly abstruse title of foolsFURY Theater’s collaboration with playwright Sheila Callaghan, Port Out, Starboard Home, now premiering at San Francisco’s Z Space before moving to La Mama in New York in November.
