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 champion performers who turn everyday contradictions into sparkling live theatre, and that is precisely why we are delighted to host C'est décidé je deviens une connasse. Staged in our intimate room—where the laughter bounces from brick to ceiling and back again—this one-woman comic rally is as bold as its title suggests: a smart, high-energy manifesto for boundaries, audacity, and unapologetic self-definition. From the venue’s vantage point, we have watched audiences lean in from the very first beat: the confessional opening, the knowingly exaggerated social scenarios, and the quick-fire reversals that keep the room in perpetual aftershock giggles. This season’s version arrives with fresh set pieces that the artist has been fine-tuning on the road, including nimble new bits like “The Polite No,” “Corporate Meeting Bingo,” and “Brunch With Boundaries,” alongside a lightning-quick mini-saga she calls “Checklist of Boundaries.” Our programming team loves how effortlessly the show moves between razor satire (office etiquette, group chats, small-talk warfare) and playful crowd work, making the whole evening feel tailor-made for Lyon’s sharpest comedy audience.

What’s new in the artist’s world, and what you’ll experience on our stage

From our side of the curtain, the artist’s current momentum is unmistakable. She has been unveiling brand-new sketches at late shows and workshop slots, and the version landing at Le Rideau Rouge carries that fresh-ink immediacy. Expect an elastic narrative that braids together micro-stories—“Email From HR,” “Waiting Room Warrior,” and “Outfit Approval Committee”—with brisk physical comedy and sly, under-the-breath punchlines that hit a beat later. The rhythm is deliberate: a confession, a ricochet of observations, a theatrical freeze, and then a release that our room amplifies with a wall of laughter. In recent months, she has also been sharing condensed digital riffs that preview the evening’s spirit, with short-form sketches like “Compliment/Insult Translator” and “The Silent Reply-All” sparking lively discussions among our regulars before the lights even go down. For us as hosts, the pleasure is in presenting a show that feels alive in the moment—its timing attuned to the night’s particular crowd, its wit sharpened by real-time give-and-take, its swagger grounded in finely crafted writing.

Because Le Rideau Rouge is built for close-range comedy, the staging of C'est décidé je deviens une connasse makes full use of our sightlines and intimacy. You’ll see the micro-expressions that sell the satire and hear the throwaway asides that stitch scenes together, from the brisk opener “Recharge Your Audacity” to the late-show kicker “The Sunday Night Resolution.” Our technical team keeps the palette simple—precise washes, staccato blackouts, and a crisp sound bed that lets every whisper land—so the performer’s timing remains front and center. Thematically, the evening maps a familiar terrain (politeness gymnastics, emotional labor, the etiquette of being “nice”) and then flips it into joyful rebellion. The artist balances punchy stand-up stretches with character-led vignettes—watch for the recurring persona who turns a WhatsApp thread into courtroom theatre—and she sprinkles in interactive moments that pull the room into the joke without putting anyone on the spot. As a venue devoted to live discovery, we’re especially proud to present this current chapter of her work: a show that feels both meticulously architected and thrillingly present-tense, the perfect match for a Lyon night out under the red velvet glow of our stage.
