摘要
两个世纪以来,皇家(棉花)交易所是曼彻斯特商业生活的核心.当前建筑物于1847年启用时,曾被描述为世界上最大的商业交易所.甚至在随着棉花贸易重心的转移、该交易所逐渐变得多余前,将规模扩大了一倍.自1976年以来,皇家交易所一直设有同名剧院.这座圆形的多层剧院因其亲密性和强烈的感情性而具有很高的影响力,可以说是世纪英国建造的最具创新性的剧场空间.
For two centuries the Royal (Cotton) Exchange was central to the commercial life of Manchester. When the current building opened in 1847 it was described as the biggest commercial room in the world. It then doubled in size before gradually becoming redundant as the cotton trade moved elsewhere.
