Return To Australia
He returned home in 2004 to star in the cult theatrical production of Debbie Does Dallas: The Musical to a sold out season.
He's involved in some pretty naughty situations, is having trouble deciding if he prefers the steam room scene or the "one with the threesome" but ask Ben Steel to pose for a photo without a shirt and surprisingly he gets all coy. "I'd rather wear a shirt, if that's ok", Steel said. The former Home and Away star, who is playing six characters in the Debbie Does Dallas musical wouldn't even reveal if he bares all in any of the roles. "I can't say whether I will or whether I won't but it's definitely an interesting ride", Steel said during a break from rehearsals at the Seymour Centre yesterday. "I get to live out some fantasy on stage", he quickly added. The musical, which is based on the famous porn movie, had its first preview show last night but Steel said his parents would wait a few weeks before they watch him in action "I said to mum I was doing this Debbie Does Dallas play and she had no idea about what it was, so I had to explain it was based on a porn movie, but when I told dad, he knew exactly what it was", he said."He then went behind the camera again in his music video directorial debut making 'Shower the People' for Australian singing legend Marcia Hines and Belinda Emmett.
He then flew to New Zealand to direct the short film 'Pullin Roots' starring Beau Brady and Clayton Watson.

Famous quotes containing the words return to, return and/or australia:
“I find very reasonable the Celtic belief that the souls of our dearly departed are trapped in some inferior being, in an animal, a plant, an inanimate object, indeed lost to us until the day, which for some never arrives, when we find that we pass near the tree, or come to possess the object which is their prison. Then they quiver, call us, and as soon as we have recognized them, the spell is broken. Freed by us, they have vanquished death and return to live with us.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“The traveller who has gone to Italy to study the tactile values of Giotto, or the corruption of the Papacy, may return remembering nothing but the blue sky and the men and women who live under it.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“I like Australia less and less. The hateful newness, the democratic conceit, every man a little pope of perfection.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
