C'est Décidé, Je Deviens Une Connasse - Le Rideau Rouge - Lyon

Le Rideau Rouge presents C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse

From our stage at Le Rideau Rouge, we are delighted to welcome the razor-sharp, liberating satire of C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse. In our intimate room, the show’s conversational tone, quick-fire punchlines, and gleeful self-deprecation land with the kind of immediacy only a close audience can offer. We see, night after night, how this manifesto of unapologetic self-assertion resonates: the performer takes the everyday pressures of being “nice,” the invisible labor of politeness, and the absurd rituals of modern manners, and flips them into moments of collective catharsis. The room breathes with the performer’s timing—an aside tossed toward the balcony, a raised eyebrow that cues a laugh wave from the stalls—and our technical team supports that precision with warm, responsive lights and crisp sound, so every whisper and punchline travels. At Le Rideau Rouge, we program comedy that tests boundaries without losing generosity; this show fits that mission perfectly, blending stand-up energy, character sketches, and a theatrical through-line that makes the audience complicit in learning how to say no, how to set limits, and how to enjoy the delicious art of not apologizing for existing.

Artistic news from the stage and what’s new in the set

What excites us this season is how the material keeps evolving. The performer behind C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse arrives at Le Rideau Rouge with a refreshed set, weaving in topical bits and newly honed sequences that our spectators have been quoting in the foyer after the curtain call. Recent sketch additions include Le mail “CC la Terre entière,” a gleeful autopsy of office diplomacy; Le brunch d’anniversaire, where passive-aggressive compliments become competitive sport; Mode avion, a love letter to boundaries and the bliss of not answering; Réunion Teams qui n’en finit pas, a ballet of corporate small talk; and Le date “on verra,” a carousel of non-committal modern romance. On the artist’s channels, short-form riffs like Le message vocal de 2 minutes, L’open space des gentils, and Guide de la reloue assumée have been teasing the same spirit, and our audience often arrives primed, eager to see these fragments expanded into full-blooded stage moments. In between tour stops, the performer has been testing fresh tags and callbacks in club sets, which means the Lyon dates showcase writing still hot from the workshop. The result at Le Rideau Rouge is a tight, propulsive evening: sharp observational comedy, character pivots you can track from the first eyebrow twitch, and a structure that lets the crowd ride the wave from confessional to farce without losing the thread.

From our vantage point as hosts, the chemistry between artist and audience is the evening’s engine. The show leans on real-time exchanges—micro-interactions that we see differently every night—so the intimacy of Le Rideau Rouge becomes a creative partner. Our room’s sightlines keep the front rows close enough for a conspiratorial grin, while the back rows still feel plugged into the game of knowing winks and shared recognition. The dramaturgy rewards that closeness: a running bit about social “rules” keeps returning in escalating forms, tying together pieces like Le collègue qui explique, La to-do list émotionnelle, and Le groupe WhatsApp familial into a satisfying arc. As a venue, we’ve noticed how this staging encourages spectators to show up a little early, soak in the mood, and carry the jokes into the bar after the show—precisely the communal rhythm we built this space for. Expect a brisk pace, smart transitions underscored by punchy sound cues, and a performer comfortable enough to throw in an extra tag when your laughter lingers. Above all, expect a generous evening that makes room for everyone who has ever swallowed a comeback, smiled through a meeting, or typed a diplomatic sentence and hovered over the send button. At Le Rideau Rouge, that moment becomes theater—and the applause sounds like relief.
