Welcome here.
Brief: tablet inderal is best for performance and situational anxiety.

Details: your description suggest that you seem to get anxious whenever you have perform in public. This performance anxiety is best treated by taking propranolol (inderal) 20mg half hour prior to anxiety provoking situation. This has immediate effects and effects last for 3-6 hours.
