Are her palms sweaty? Should she have worn gloves or something? No, surely it's too warm out for that. That would have appeared strange.
She squeezes his hand and follows him, deciding that this is all the reassurance she needs. Despite there being more prying eyes, everyone seems to be far more focused on the performance, or on each other. That makes her feel better. Plus, the first performer at center stage isn't someone they know, so she doesn't feel bad about stealing glances at others in the audience to see how they're doing it.
Keeping her hand firmly in his, she reaches for his shoulder with her other. Except she's short, so it's probably like... the side of his upper arm, at best.
