I'm not sure what you mean by "Sing it like that and sing it high"!.!.!.!.
Just make sure that you are slowly warming up using vocal exercises (scales, etc!.)!. My favorite "quick" warm up are sirens- just like it sounds, sliding up and down on an open vowel, or changing between Ooh on lower notes to Oh or Ah on higher notes!. Make sure your throat is relaxed- to find out, force a yawn!. That open feeling at the back of your throat when you yawn- you should have that when you're singing as much as possible!. Don't lift your chin to sing higher (or lower your chin to sing lower!!)

Sing the word "sing" and hold the "ng" position, then "hum" with your mouth open!. Do scales, leaps, etc!. and "sing" your song this way!. This is the resonant hum!.

The lip whistle, you go "p-p-p-p-p" like a child doing a motor boat while making a pitch in your throat!. Do siren sounds, and again, sing your song this way!.
These help all kinds of problems!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

go on vocal rest!
next drink lots of water!. Warm up before you sing!.
and when it comes to a high note, make sure you're not anticipating it!. when you sing it, think down, not up!. use alot of stomach support and drink tea!. also pinch your butt cheeks together for extra support!. REALLY WORKS!!!!!!
good luck and stop worrying about it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I know this sounds weird but I had a friend who sang in a choir & she swore by foods high in magnesium - i!.e - unsalted almonds, spinach, peanut butter!. I don't quite remember her reasons behind it but she did swear by it!. Hope that info helps!Www@QuestionHome@Com

mix hot water, honey, and lemon juice together it'll warm up your voice really well (: good luck in the show!Www@QuestionHome@Com
