Bell Shakespeare’s primary theatre and rehearsal space, The Neilson Nutshell is a blank canvas, fully configurable for a wide range of events, from dinner and cocktail functions to conferences, lectures and – of course – live performances. The venue features moveable plush seating banks which can be positioned to suit your event or removed from the space altogether.

The Seed is Bell Shakespeare’s dedicated education space and is versatile in its setup. The venue boasts access to a large private balcony overlooking the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge, making it the perfect setting for a lavish luncheon, elegant soiree, or a corporate event in a creative setting.

The Neilson Nutshell and The Seed are adjoining spaces and can be hired separately for simple events or together for more complex events, such as a dinner requiring a nearby kitchen, or a conference with a requirement for breakout spaces. Both venues can include access to two dressing rooms as well as the theatre foyer bar.
With a calming interior and a premiere view of the Sydney Harbour, Bell Shakespeare’s Boardroom is the ideal venue for a board meeting, presentation, or strategy day. The dimmable lights and access to the adjoining Greenroom convert the space into a spectacular location for an intimate lunch or dinner, or a buzzy cocktail function.
