She has been credited, with Jennie Brenan and Minnie Everett, with maintaining the high standard of Australian dance and ballet in the 1920s, between the reigns of Emilia Pasta and Anna Pavlova.
In 1894 she was appearing in shows as a member of the "Parisian Pas de Quatre" with Annie Cobb, Lena Cassellis, and Alice Mitchell.
[5] She appeared as a harlequin in the 1896 Christmas pantomime at Her Majesty's Theatre, Sydney, choreographed by Emilia Pasta and produced by Charles B. Westmacott for Williamson and Musgrove[6] and "trouser parts" in successive pantos, the later ballets being arranged by Minnie Everett.
She also produced a pantomime Cinderella, which ran for four weeks, and at its conclusion Hooper and Rosevear, who designed the costumes, were each presented with an engraved gold watch by a grateful Sheridan.
[9] Other work for Sheridan included The Lady (or New) Barmaid (1903) with music by John Crook, In 1919 she made a claim against J. C. Williamson's of £30 for salary withheld during government-imposed closure of theatres[10] due to the influenza epidemic.
