About me

Originally from Scotland, I grew up in England and the USA.After leaving the University of Derby I was accepted into the Intelligence Corps of the British Army where I served for 10 years including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. Afterwards I worked in the tech start-up sector where I specialized in agile, product management and executive coaching.In 2023 I made the transition to acting initially starting with community theatre. I was cast in the lead role of Bouncers at Leicester Little Theatre before training at All In Actors, London.I made my professional theatre debut in 2024 at the Etcetera Theatre, London.That year I also established the Cocky Scot theatre company to bring my own writing to the stage.I enjoy postcrossing, travel, snowboarding and photography (links in the footer). I also occasionally act as a guest reviewer for East Midlands Theatre.

Reviews and Press

Some words, some of them even complimentary

Bouncers
2023

East Midlands Theatre
Theatre and Tonic

"Feeney shows us a more vulnerable side to Lucky Eric, his delivery is strong and the atmosphere in the auditorium changes as soon as one of his monologues is announced – Feeney holds the audience in the palm of his hand."

"Bouncers is honest, hilarious and hypnotising at the same time."

April in Paris

What’s Good To Do
Theatre and Tonic

"An unmissable production. Seddon and Feeney’s versatility, transforms “April in Paris” from a mere play into a reflection of our lives and relationships."

"Feeney and Seddon perform brilliantly together. They are a joy to watch. To portray characters with such humour and nuance is a true testament to Feeney and Seddon’s acting abilities."

"Kat Seddon and Steve Feeney were wonderful together; such strong chemistry and the evolution of tired-from-the-grind couple to reigniting their love trajectory was believable and honest. Both had brilliant expressions, projection, and were fabulously reactive. Both just played their characters to excellence."

"A masterclass of a two-hander production, with ample heart running through its core. Feeney effectively captures the subtle complexities of Al’s character. He delivers witty one-liners with excellent comic timing but is also expressive through his body language to portray Al’s anxiety and unease in novel situations."

The Blood is the Life

"The best adaptation of Renfield we have ever seen."

"A slick, explorative adaptation of the gothic horror. One not to miss, next time it returns to the stage. The actors were a delight to watch. We lost ourselves in the story."

"Please continue to make more horror plays"

Feeney and Baker have created a whole life for Renfield to exist within. The atmospheric creation of working life in London, the hints at a fiancée lost to Victorian disease and an innate but casual violence in Renfield’s makeup provide a strong basis for the development of the show
