Well it's hard to help someone sing without hearing them but I'll give it a go anyway :) Which role in which play is it aswell, or which songs are gonna be in it, so I can work out the sort of vocals you'll be using!?
For power, you need to involve the diaphragm and the sternum in the singing!. The diaphragm, if you didn't already know, is a thin sheet of muscle which can be found around where the belly button is!. Through exercising this muscle, and learning to incorporate it in your singing, you can gain power!.
Some exercises to try are, dig your hands into your waist, almost until it hurts, and say, well I can't actually type the sounds as they're pretty hard to spell, but try panting, saying SHHH, forcefully, and doing VVVVVVVVV!.
As strange as that last paragraph looks, these things will actually work, focus on breathing into the diaphragm by putting your hand on your stomach and breathing slowly in and out, so that you can see your hand moving!.
There's loads more stuff to do, but it's pretty difficult to communicate them all in type, I'm sure there are websites out there that could explain it a lot better than me!
Good Luck, Break A Leg, and all that Jazz :)Www@Enter-QA@Com
