Break a leg

A theatrical way to say "good luck" without actually saying "good luck," because it’s considered bad luck to wish someone good luck in show business. Instead, you wish them to "break a leg" so the opposite (success) will happen. Used not just in theater anymore, but for performances, interviews, and other high-stakes situations.
