On stage were Bodo Krumwiede and Florine Elena Deplazes; off-roles were voiced by Christa Rigozzi, Gilles Tschudi, René Rindlisbacher, Heidi Maria Glössner and Bella Neri. In 2023, Steinmann has written two new stageplays: The one-lady drama Teufelskreis and its English adaption Ruthless what is based on the 'survival' of Ruth Madoff; and an Agatha Christie-like crime-comedy titled Wenn der Drilling mit der Zwilling.
