We are delighted to introduce our beautiful new fully flexible rehearsal and performance studio at Pier 2/3, The Neilson Nutshell. This will be our creative heart, where the work of our directors, designers, and artists comes to fruition. Overlooking the Sydney Harbour Bridge, The Neilson Nutshell will feature all the heritage charm of Pier 2/3 and, when in performance mode, transform into a stunningly intimate theatre.

By naming a seat in The Neilson Nutshell, you will be a foundational donor to our flagship space, supporting Bell Shakespeare’s future and the artists who inspire you. Your tax-deductible donation of $2,500 will be acknowledged with your chosen inscription affixed to a Nutshell seat for a minimum of 25 years.

If you wish to make a donation over the phone or are having trouble with the form please contact Ell Katte, Philanthropy and Major Gifts Manager, on 02 8220 7509 or email giving@bellshakespeare.com.au

Instalment payments available on request. Any use of Shakespeare’s language on plaques will be subject to approval. We will provide a digital proof of your plaque before it is engraved.
