Sheridan was named as one of three Fringe Ambassadors for the Adelaide Fringe in 2017.
The Australian production of 'Hedwig and the Angry Inch' was postponed in 2020 after a petition revealed the lack of LGBTQ representation in the film and expressed "disappointment" over the casting of Sheridan in the lead role of Hedwig, whom many believe to be a transgender character. Zoe Terakes wrote an open letter to the Sydney Festival written by a group of people, including Daya Czepanski, David Campbell, and Michaela Banas, explaining why trans representation is so important when describing a trans character's tale. Sheridan, who reported an attraction to both men and women but refused to use the word masculinity, was also called for to recast her name. In reaction to the letter, Hedwig's creators, John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask, released a statement saying that they did not believe Hedwig was transgender and that no one was qualified to play the role. However, Showtune Productions, the Australian producers, have cancelled the show. Sheridan explained to the Sydney Morning Herald how this letter and cyber bullying triggered shock and serious mental health problems, including twice considering suicide.
