Expression of encouragement used in the performing arts
"Toi toi toi" (English: /ˈtɔɪˈtɔɪˈtɔɪ/)[1] is an expression used in the performing arts to wish an artist success in an imminent performance. It is similar to "break a leg" and reflects a superstition that wishing someone "good luck" is in fact bad luck.[2][3][4]
