"They Try to Teach You to be Less Callow, Less Shallow..."

Opening night, and my voice is gone.

O_O

Um. No matter how much I hate this play, I don't want to spoil things for it like this? What am I going to do whatamIgonnadoohmygodohmygod...

Drink tea with honey! Tea with honey!

Ahhh! I did! Even though it was off my diet and gah. ;_; And it. Sort of worked.

*pats, soothes* Tea with honey is good. So is... Let's see, I have no idea if you can get a hold of it, but there's a thing called Singer's Saving Grace that I have used before when my voice went phtt before a speech contest or a choir concert. It's very effective - stings your throat and makes you choke for a moment or so before it kicks in, but it's very effective. I'm really not sure... Do any of your local grocery stores have an herbal remedies or tea aisle? It might be in there.

If there isn't any way, hot tea with honey is best, and in that case you'll want something herbal and soothing. Chamomile, maybe.

*snuggles* It'll be okay, hon. Just try to baby your voice as much as you can, and see if it comes back.

I didn't manage to find it, but I did drink tea with honey, the ecinacea (a word which I cannot spell) sort. It's horrible. But I whispered all day long and drank loads of water and got it back in time for the show.

Oh, good. *hugs* And yes, that stuff is not the best tasting drink in the world. *eyes own mug* But it's all right if you dunk enough honey it.

It's evil. And I can't put much honey in it, because diet. But all that's in the past, and now haff no need!
