So, you can use "good luck" with pretty much all scenarios including performances or auditions where there is audience. Thank you for another great video.

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Yes, exactly.

I was taught in Theater Class, as someone with a actor background, that you shouldn't use good luck in any context. But to each their own.

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

So you would always use "break a leg" in theater situations? Good to know!

Teacher: hi guys, this is just a friendly reminder. Tomorrow all of you will be required to take the written closed-book exam. Don’t forget it. Best of luck with your written exam.
