The Betty Nansen Theatre, located on Frederiksberg Allé in Copenhagen's Frederiksberg district, stands as a cultural landmark. It was named in honour of the actress Betty Nansen, a notable figure who led the theatre for many years.

Nansen's management of the venue spanned from 1917 until her passing in 1943, a period during which she shaped its artistic direction and legacy. The theatre continues to be a significant venue within the city's vibrant arts scene, reflecting its enduring connection to its namesake.
