She visited South Africa as a member of [[Disney Roebuck]]'s first company that arrived in the country in 1873 for performances in Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and King Williamstown.
 
 
 
She was largely used in supporting roles, and had great success playing the "precocious Sam Willoughby" in ''[[The Ticket of Leave Man]]'' ().
 
 
 
In King Williamstown however, she fell out with Roebuck and so she left the company with [[E.V. Sinclair]] and Brougham. However this ended in the courts, since Roebuck argued that she had broken her contract.
