Orchestra audition! Help?

Okay I've got an audition coming up on August 29th for a community orchestra in the city I live in. I've been playing violin for two years. I need help! I'm gonna be playing Liebesleid by Kreisler. Is this a good piece for me? How can I make my vibrato more audible? You can barely hear it! And it's kind of restricted. And what do I wear to an audition?! I've never auditioned for anything before. Help!
