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

At Le Rideau Rouge: an intimate home for C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse

At Le Rideau Rouge, we take great pleasure in hosting C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse, a razor-sharp comedy experience that thrives on proximity, timing, and the kind of audacious honesty our Lyon audience loves. From the vantage point of the room, the show plays like a high-wire act of social observation: a cascade of scenes that pin down everyday hypocrisies, etiquette traps, and the pressure to smile politely when boundaries should be drawn. Our stage team leans into the minimalism that suits this format—tight spotlights, crisp sound, and a room layout that keeps the comic and crowd in lively dialogue. You will feel the ripple of laughter travel through the red seats as recognisable situations—workplace chit-chat, family dinners, dating apps, urban micro-aggressions—are turned over, pared down, and rebuilt into punchlines that hit fast and land clean. The title sets the tone; the writing does the rest, with an arc that moves from soft irony to unapologetic empowerment, and an aftertaste of catharsis that lingers long after the final applause.

Current momentum, fresh material, and the pulse of today’s comedy

We welcome this show at a moment when the artist’s momentum is palpable: the set is leaner, the callbacks tighter, and new tags are introduced from week to week to mirror the headlines and the shifting mood of city life. That living, breathing energy is central to our programming at Le Rideau Rouge, and it pairs beautifully with the show’s no-filter promise. Audiences who keep tabs on contemporary francophone comedy—through recent programs and platforms like LOL: Qui rit, sort!, Jamel Comedy Club, Montreux Comedy’s digital stage, Drôlement Bon, and France Inter’s stand-up slots—will recognise the brisk cadence and observational edge honed here. The evening pivots around recurring comic situations that feel immediately familiar: the “meeting from hell” that mutates into a power play, the “perfect friend” whose perfection is performance, the “customer-service labyrinth” in which kindness is a script and firmness is the only exit. As a venue, we have noticed a specific chemistry in the room when these beats arrive: a murmur of recognition, a wave of laughter, then a hush as the next confession begins. The result is more than a succession of jokes; it’s a social x-ray that takes aim at the rituals that ask people—especially women—to shrink themselves. The show answers that request with a wry smile and a firm no.

From our seats backstage, the pleasures of staging C'est décidé, je deviens une connasse are practical as well as artistic. The set design’s agility lets us fine-tune pace between segments, while our light cues sketch quick, cinematic transitions that keep the rhythm tight and the attention laser-focused. We shape the ambience so the smallest aside, a tilt of the head, or a whispered punchline carries to the last row. Le Rideau Rouge’s scale is a perfect fit for this kind of confessional bravado: intimate enough for complicity, spacious enough for the laugh to roll. And because the show evolves with each performance, returning audiences will catch fresh angles and polished beats across the run—new detours, sharper rejoinders, and a finale that benefits from the nightly exchange with Lyon’s discerning crowd. Whether you track the current comedy wave through viral clips, packed club sets, or word of mouth, this date at Le Rideau Rouge offers the onstage spark that digital snippets can’t capture: the shared gasp, the unguarded laughter, and the collective thrill of hearing someone say, out loud and on your behalf, exactly what you were thinking.
