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

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

At Le Rideau Rouge, we cherish performances that turn everyday life into theater, and C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse is a quintessential example of that alchemy. Night after night, we see our audience take their seats expecting a light-hearted evening and leave with the delightful sensation of having been granted permission to speak louder, laugh bigger, and claim a bit more space. From our vantage point just off the stage, the show’s rhythm is a joy to witness: tight, nimble, and calibrated for an intimate room like ours where facial expressions, throwaway lines, and conspiratorial glances matter as much as punchlines. The performer navigates our red-draped stage with a brisk, confident gait, using silence as skillfully as sound, inviting every row into a game of complicity. The premise may be audacious, but the delivery is generous and playful, turning sharp observation into collective release. For us as a venue, it’s precisely the kind of human, immediate comedy that Le Rideau Rouge was built to amplify—close, alive, and tuned to the present tense of the room.

Fresh material, new angles, and a living script in Lyon

We are proud to host the show in a living form, with pages that evolve from week to week and a structure that leaves room for discovery. The evening unfolds as a series of vividly drawn slices of modern life, shaped into distinct vignettes that our audience quickly comes to recognize. Expect playful set pieces with tongue-in-cheek titles such as Le Bureau du Non, La Réunion qui aurait pu être un mail, Checklist de la gentille fille, Le Brunch de l’enfer, and SMS à 3 h du matin—mini-worlds where politeness rules crack, boundaries get redrawn, and the myth of “being nice” faces the reality of everyday absurdity. From our technical desk, we see how the lighting, minimal props, and crisp musical cues anchor each segment, while ad-libbed asides keep the experience gloriously unpredictable. The show’s voice is contemporary and candid, built on crowd-aware timing that thrives in our room’s closeness. It’s comedy as choreography: fast footwork, unapologetic pivots, and a finale that leaves the room buzzing long after the stage lights go dark.

From the standpoint of Le Rideau Rouge, the artist’s current momentum is palpable. The latest run here in Lyon features sharpened transitions, a newly elastic opening that adjusts to the energy of each audience, and a handful of fresh bits that have quickly become favorites—Le Stage de confiance en soi, Plaidoyer pour le droit d’être chiante, and Mode avion affectif among them. We’ve watched the comedian add deft crowd work to the mix, using spontaneous conversations to springboard into written material without losing narrative focus. That blend of rigor and play is the hallmark of the show’s artistic present: disciplined writing that still feels improvised, topical references woven into universal themes, and a throughline that keeps every laugh tethered to a larger idea. In our intimate Lyon setting, these updates land with extra resonance—the proximity magnifies nuance, and the shared laughter becomes a character in its own right. For us, it’s a privilege to stage a work that keeps renewing itself and to see how each performance at Le Rideau Rouge becomes a small, unforgettable act of collective bravado.
