Steele made his Broadway debut in the 2006 revival of The Threepenny Opera, playing the ensemble roles of Harry and Velma while understudying the role of Lucy Brown.

In the fall of 2006, Steele was signed to a four-year development deal for a commercial music project. For the next for years he focused on writing, producing, conceiving and developing a conceptualized electro/rock/pop album while traveling throughout Europe. While working on the album, Steele originated roles in the world premieres of Neil Bartlett's adaptation of Oliver Twist (presented by Theatre for a New Audience Off-Broadway in 2007) and It's Only Life (premiering at the Rubicon Theatre Company in Ventura in 2008).

After completing its run, Steele returned to Europe, entering the last chapter of the fated music project, ultimately leaving the deal in February 2011. Steele took the next year off to develop several screenplays as a writer.
