The art of making rehearsed look like it's happening to you for the first time.
means A public display or performance of something, put on for others to see.
from From Old English 'sceawian,' meaning to look at or behold — related to German 'schauen.' It started as a word about seeing, and only slid later into meaning the thing being seen: the performance arranged for someone else's eyes.
