Okay... I totally know where your coming from. Stage nerves suck. Every time I've been on stage though, the lighting was to where I couldn't see the audience. I couldn't see the agents... nothing. So, in my mind I was back in my room just practicing by myself. If that makes ANY sense. But, if you know your stuff like Thespia said and your confident in your talent you'll do fine. Just remember GOD'S GOT YOUR BACK!!! Just take a couple deep breaths. Embrace the butterflies!!! Lol. Good luck with everything.

I don't get really nervous very often, but when I do, I grab a few friends and we all pray. It helps calm me down a lot. Last time I performed (the church christmas program) we forgot to pray before hand, and so I was REALLY nervous, and halfway through the program (a while before we went on) I realized that we hadn't prayed. Well, we no one else thought that was a good idea, so I was just really nervous and fidgety and one of my friends said I was all pale and shakey, which is how I get when I'm nervous

Okay, I'm done now.

I don't really get stage nerves too often. But if I do, I might find some people in the audience to sing/act "to," because they are here to watch you and what you're doing; if you interact with them you might get into what you're doing more because you can see that they're enjoying it. I just try to remember that things rarely turn out as bad as I'm expecting them to be, and I'll be O.K. Enjoy what you're going to do, and you should get into it and not worry too much about what the audience thinks because if you're enjoying it then they will enjoy it, too. Hope that helps.
