Every morning I work on the Today's facts list. The rest of the day I work to move my award-winning dark comedy play forward. Our goal is to stage The Woman in the Mirror at the 2026 Edinburgh Fringe Festival next August to get in front of TV, film, and theatre investors/producers. I'm not ready to give up yet - on democracy or the play! You can help:

THE WOMAN IN THE MIRROR PLAY

The Woman in the Mirror is a raw, witty, and unexpectedly uplifting chronicle of a mother and daughter. For anyone who has ever cared for a loved one, this is a journey you’ll never forget.

Audiences nationwide have connected with its balance of comedy and compassion, finding strength in Steele’s fearless honesty. It’s part caregiver’s manual, part how-to guide for friends and family, and all heart—delivering laughter, insight, and connection.

“A lovely, polished gem in the high desert. I recently had the opportunity to see an incredible, professional production that was as solid as anything I've seen Off Broadway and better than half of what I've seen on Broadway recently. Well done, ladies and tech team!” - Google Review
