No, an acted parable is real, but uses an action to illustrate a wider truth.

Examples include Paul's prophecy with Agabus and the belt, symbolising Paul's future captivity, Also the wilting of the fig tree- despite the outward appearance of religiosity in C1 Israel (leaves), there was no genuine fruit (true righteousness), so God would destroy Israel. Also Isaiah walking naked and barefoot to symbolise that Cush and Egypt would be lead away in that state.

What a coincidence that only the religious use that term. There' nothing like making your own definitions to support something that never happened.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
