    In 2008 she received the Theo d'Or for her role as Cleopatra in Romeinse tragedies. She was nominated for the Colombina in 2007 for her role in Oresteia and in 2006 for her role in Opening Night. Her Elisabeth I in Maria Stuart earned her a Theo d'Or nomination in 2015, followed by another Theo d'Or nomination in 2016 for her role in The Glass Menagerie.

    From 1994 Nietvelt was a member of ZT Hollandia, where she became one of the company's defining actors, appearing in productions including Tim van Athene and Seemannslieder/Op hoop van zegen. She also performed in the acclaimed Elementarteilchen at Schauspielhaus Zürich, directed by Johan Simons. In 2008 Nietvelt played the courtesan Marguerite Gautier in Van Hove's German-language production Kameliendame.
