this happened to me too but this was two days before the actual play not auditions drink a lot of water and drink a lot of hot tea with honey and try not to talk unless you just have to and your scratchy voice will go awayWww@QuestionHome@Com

Drink lots of water, and I would stay away from dairy products!. also get plenty of rest, as in rest your voice and get enough sleep!.And if it's the result of a cold, perhaps you still have some of it, so try eating a clove of garlic!. Viruses, bugs, etc!. don't like garlic and will leave!. No joke!. And if it doesn't go away, maybe the auditioners will notice it's not your fault, and if you're a good actor they might cast you anyway!. Break a leg!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The same thing happened to me last week, so I know how you feel! I just sang out veryyyy loudly, and my voice sounded great!. I got callbacks and a leading part!. Drink a lot of water all the time, too, and take cough drops a lot (I ate 3-5 a day)!.

Lot's of rest - no milk, or sugar!!! It can cause gunk to get in your vocal chords!.!.!.!.!.warm up softly!.!.!.don't yell or overuse your voice!.!.!.!.steam, coat, do what ever you can to stay healthy - when i have been in shows I have had to not talk!.!.!.and make sure you only use non menthol cough drops!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
