Use relaxation techniques before the show. Find a way to calm yourself down.
Sing your solo in front of people you know. Ask your friends to listen to you sing, this way you'll get more used to seeing people while you sing this solo.
I don't know if this will work for you, but this is what I do. During a dress rehearsal, find something to stare at in the audience. I always use the lights from the sound booth, or an exit sign in the back of the theatre. This way it looks like you're staring at the audience, but actually, you're just looking at the lights. Try to pick more than one spot to look at so that you don't look too much like a robot!
Just remember that you got this solo because you have talent and skill! You got it because the director has confidence in you! I'm sure you'll be great! Break a leg!

when ur performing, think like the audience isn't there and you're practicing by yourself. Sing the way u love to sing for urself. Dont give a damn to audience and the prize just be kool and relaxed. Thats what i do when i sing infornt of peoples and that makes me feel better
May God help u in ur performance

Have something good to fall back on. I have problems presenting in front of people myself. I keep thinking that everyone is not perfect so my audience can't really judge me or anything. Even if I know I'll mess up, I wouldn't let anybody no that i will. Ok I also think about something else, something better, and then i think about just getting it done. And since you perform for 4 days, you're bound to not keep messing up again and again!!!

thats normal, practice in front of the mirror and in front of you're family if you feel comfortable doing so. also when you're performing look stright out to the back wall, try not to notice the audience...
REMEMBER!!! you got the solo so you must be good.

dont look directly at anyone{that messes me up} look at the wall in the back of the room.....dont worry about how you sound just give it all you got and tell yourself you are going to do good! as soon as you start thinking negative thoughts about yourself and your singing you are going to start doubting yourself so keep your head up and think positive things!! Hope this helps!! Good Luck :)
