Danielle Mullenix
In addition to stage performances in regional theatres, Danielle conducts masterclasses on personal branding for aspiring musical theatre actors. She was featured in ACCESS magazine in March 2019 in an article titled "GIRLS WHO WILL CHANGE THE WORLD," recognizing her as an upcoming performer to watch. Critics have praised her performances as “warm, lovely, emotional, silky,” noting how her “beautiful voice transports audiences to another time,” deeply touching them.
In January of 2025, Danielle debuted at Lincoln Center with The American Pops Orchestra as a national finalist in the 8th Annual NextGen Vocal Competition. She has received numerous awards and nominations for her stage performances. Outside of performing, Danielle is an avid bookworm, gym-goer, and cinephile. She believes spontaneity and travel benefit the soul, and she tries to seize as many opportunities as possible to explore the world and experience different cultures. As a caffeine connoisseur, you're more than likely to find her exploring nearby coffee shops wherever she is located. Danielle loves to be outside and near any body of water (she likes to believe she's part mermaid, having grown up by the Gulf of Mexico).
American soprano and journalist Danielle Mullenix showcases her versatility across musical theatre, film, television, and the music recording industry. She began her career at seventeen at Everblue Arts. Danielle is a graduate of The University of Alabama, receiving a BFA in musical theatre, a minor in News Media, and graduating magna cum laude with honors distinction. She believes her purpose is to be a storyteller and loves to explore this passion across as many media as possible.
Danielle integrates her theatre studies and news media training to tell stories about the humanity and arts within her communities. In 2025, she received the Idaho Woman of Influence in Media and Communication award. Her contributions to the UA arts community earned her the Sophomore of the Year Award from the College of Arts and Sciences in 2023, along with other honors. Outside her theatrical pursuits, Danielle works as a news reporter and anchor at KIFI Local News 8, participates in community service, and regularly takes freelance projects as a content creator and writer.
Her love for vocal performance and acting stems from a strong music background in Musical Theatre, classical theatre techniques, and Jazz Performance. She has studied under esteemed educators Celeste Simone, Dorothy Savage, and Dr. Luvada Harrison and continues to train. Danielle has performed internationally, including a 2016 European tour as a cellist with the St. Paul’s Chamber Orchestra and as an actor and vocalist in the 2023 Trentino Music Festival in Mezzano, Italy. She has engaged in developmental readings and crossover projects in film and theatre. She aims to challenge conventional character analysis by grounding her artistry in the principles of Meisner, Stanislavski, Chekhov, and the Alexander Technique. She also produced and wrote her first cabaret show, “Rhythm & Blooms: A Theatrical Jazz Cabaret,” in the spring of 2025 at the University of Alabama.
