El Crédito at Repertorio Español

Written by Jordi Garcelán and directed by Fernando Then, the play tells the unforgettable story of an ordinary man and his attempts at getting a small bank loan on which his livelihood depends.

He cannot offer any guarantees or properties, only his word of honor and a promise that he will eventually pay back every single penny. The rejection of the loan by the Branch Manager leaves them both in a very delicate and hilarious situation. Featuring actors Luis Carlos de la Lombana and Txemi Parra.
