  Daniel Cunningham found his love of performing in the multicultural tropics of Darwin, his hometown. A trained theatre practitioner, Daniel graduated from the Victorian College of the Arts with a Bachelor of Dramatic Art and toured nationally with theatre shows, and film and TV roles. Producing events was a natural progression for Daniel, who saw potential in under-represented markets to create fabulous events that celebrate diversity and inclusion. He has spent extensive time in China and other Asian countries as a producer of stadium-style multicultural events and choreographer for Global Beauty Pageants and the opening ceremony for the Arafura Games. Daniel has practiced his craft throughout Australia, now calling Sydney home. In 2014, Party Passport Events and Entertainment was born and as co-director, Daniel has produced the acclaimed annual competition Miss First Nation, which was documented in its infancy in the film 'Black Divaz'. He has produced Darwin Pride Festival and numerous events for the Rainbow community including the first-ever NT float at Mardi Gras and the weekly event Queer Folx, celebrating Queer culture and performers. His drag character Marzi Panne is Ambassador for the fabALICE Festival and is renowned for her quick wit and comedic shows as World Lip-Sync Champion. Daniel used the pandemic down-time to complete his master’s degree in marketing at RMIT and looks forward to his next collaboration, SUGARBAG festival, celebrating Queer Arts and Culture.
