I would also add lemon to the tea-honey combination- drink it warm and often.
You can also visit your local pharmacist/chemist and ask for a throat rinse (based on iodine) which is meant to act as a small disinfectant for any nasties that could be in your throat. Keep your throat warm (scarf) and rest.

Drink lots of tea with honey. You can also try Cloraceptic spray. Try not to talk. That will preserve your voice.

Drink TONS of water.
Use lozenges for your throat with a numbing effect; try to buy these with little alcohol/sugar.
DO NOT drink tea with honey or lemon.
Both honey and lemon will dry your vocal cords out, and you need them for your play!!!!
Get plenty of rest.
Eat lots of veggies and fruits, because your body needs Vitamin C to recooperate.
Do some vocal exercises about every 2 hours - like humming for a couple minutes.
However, avoid singing and talking as much as possible.
WATER, WATER, WATER.
