Nikolaj Cederholm (b. 1963) is a Danish playwriter, director, actor and theatre worker.
As a teenager Cederholm attracted a lot of attention to a series of shows under the title The Desperate Renovation Show of Dr. Dante (Dr. Dantes Desperate Renovationsshow), which gradually constituted into a group with Cederholm as the leader.
In 1985 the group moved to a closed down furniture shop, which was named Dr. Dante and in 1992 Cederholm was appointed to theatre manager for the Avenue Theatre, whereby a part of the group followed him and the theatre was renamed Dr. Dantes Avenue.
In 2001 Cederholm finished his era at The Avenue Theatre and in the following years he has primarily worked as a stage director on his own as well as on others productions. He has received a number of prizes and has a crucial position in new Danish stage art.
