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

C'est décidé je deviens une connasse at Le Rideau Rouge

At Le Rideau Rouge in Lyon’s Croix-Rousse, we are thrilled to welcome the audacious, razor-sharp humor of C'est décidé je deviens une connasse to our stage. Our intimate room is built for confessional comedy and quick-fire punchlines: close enough for every raised eyebrow to land, generous enough for laughter to ripple in waves across the room. The show taps into a collective desire to stop apologizing and start speaking plainly, and that spirit resonates beautifully in our red-draped theatre, where performer and audience share the same breath. With crisp acoustics and agile lighting, the stage design serves a nimble set that moves from sly observational beats to full-bodied physical comedy. Expect the performer to mine everyday absurdities—workplace diplomacy, social niceties, dating mishaps, family rituals—and to push them just far enough to reveal a liberating truth: sometimes, reclaiming your boundaries is the most generous joke of all. As a venue devoted to live, unfiltered performance, we love how the piece invites laughter of recognition while keeping room for surprise, improvisation, and that special electricity only live theatre can produce.

The artist’s current momentum on our stage

This season at Le Rideau Rouge, the artist brings a refreshed, topical iteration of C'est décidé je deviens une connasse, sharpened with new riffs on digital overload, workplace “wellness,” eco-anxiety, and the choreography of modern relationships. The pace is conversational yet meticulous, an hour that feels like a tête-à-tête with a friend who dares say what others only think. If you follow the pulse of contemporary francophone comedy—where the cutting energy of Jamel Comedy Club, the international spotlight of Montreux Comedy Festival, and the conversational tempo seen on Quotidien have shaped audience expectations—you’ll instantly recognize the show’s lively rhythm and agile crowd rapport. Our room’s close sightlines encourage playful asides and genuine exchanges; the performer reads the room, accelerates, pivots, and lingers just long enough for the subtext to bloom into a punchline. We have tailored our technical setup to keep transitions seamless, allowing the narrative to stretch and snap back as the performer escalates from whispered confidences to grand comic declarations. It’s a living set: recognizable enough to feel like a mirror, new enough to keep you leaning in.

From our vantage point at Le Rideau Rouge, what makes this production particularly exhilarating is the structure: a succession of vivid scenes that trace the cheeky promise of the title from timid beginnings to unabashed self-affirmation. You’ll hear the shiver of recognition in the room as the performer anatomizes that over-polite email drafted ten times, the group chat ruled by unspoken rules, or the brunch where small talk becomes competitive sport. The show’s recurring set pieces strike a deft balance between satire and empathy, turning the mythical “connasse” into a comic lens for examining pressure, performance, and permission. Our team leans into that energy with warm pre-show ambiance and a crisp, no-fuss staging that centers the voice, timing, and presence. Whether you’re a regular in our audience or stepping into Le Rideau Rouge for the first time, this is a chance to experience up-close what we love about live comedy in Lyon: material forged from daily life, performed with boldness and heart, and shared in a room designed to amplify authentic reactions—gasps, cackles, and those wonderful seconds of stunned silence before the next big laugh.
