Sharry Flett is a Canadian actress.[1] She is most noted for her performances in the television films War Brides, for which she was a Bijou Award nominee for Best Actress in a Non-Feature in 1981,[2] and The Suicide Murders, for which she was a Gemini Award nominee for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Program or Series at the 1st Gemini Awards in 1986.[3]

Flett trained as an opera singer, but began performing in speaking theatrical roles after finding herself being typecast in soubrette roles due to the quality of her singing voice.[1]
