Abstract
*1. an elaborately staged activity, performance, presentation, or event designed to sway or convince people (from a derisive term for a small circus)
2. Pretending to be something you're not or doing something that you want people to think is important when it really isn't.
3. A demonstration or proof of concept (often done for a client) to prove the product works as sold or to show how a design on paper looks once actually built. May or may not be a waste of time. Used in the special effects industry among many others.
