Royal Exchange Theatre
Manchester's leading theatre company is based in the historic Royal Exchange, once a major cotton trading centre.
The Theatre itself is one of the most unusual performance venues in the UK. A seven-sided steel and glass module sits within the hall, containing a stage surrounded by seating on all sides.
The Studio is a separate 100-person capacity venue that hosts performances from touring theatre companies, poets, and more.
Every Friday throughout the season free entertainment is offered in the Great Hall. Exhibitions are also held here.
For a full programme of theatrical performances and events visit the official Royal Exchange website.
