A memorial was made to her memory by her colleague, the actor-dancer Heracleides, at the Roman theatre of Aquileia.
She is described as a stage performer who acted both in speeking roles in theatre plays, pantomime performances, as a dancer and as a choir singer, whose fame reached across many cities of the Empire. She is referred to as an archimima, which was the title of the leading lady in a Roman theatre, praised as a "10th Muse" and was particularly known for a death scene.
A role she is believed to have performed was the famous comedy role of the plotting wife Charition.
