Tomorrow I am going to a late audition for Cinderella. It's a musical. I have no fear of being onstage at all. The only thing that is scaring me is that I'm sick. My throat has crap all down that back of it so I have to constantly clear my throat. It was generous of Mrs.Jane to let me have a second chance to audition but my voice is far from it's best. I have been told that I can sing well, but I'm worried I will sound really bad tomorrow. Does anybody know of any way/remedy for my throat/voice? I know it's kind of stupid to ask, but I really want a part. Should I just tell Mrs.Jane that I'm sick or what? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!

I'm a singer too. I used to go to choir with the flu and i sounded alright. Just sing like normal, ignore the phlegmy sound and the worst that you can do is strain your voice to try and hide the phlegmy sound. And if "Mrs. Jane" is really a professional, she'll be able to tell your experience and the way your voice sounds through the phlegm.

Hope I helped!
