Les Copines D'abord - Le Rideau Rouge De Lyon

Le Rideau Rouge welcomes Les Copines d'Abord

At Le Rideau Rouge, we take particular pride in showcasing artists who turn proximity into electricity, and Les Copines d'Abord fits that promise perfectly. Our intimate room, with its warm sightlines and crisp acoustics, is the ideal canvas for a show that thrives on quick-fire rapport, theatrical finesse, and the kind of shared laughter that rolls from the stage to the back row and back again. This performance unfolds as a lively, female-driven evening where wit, timing, and ensemble chemistry are the headliners, and where each beat is sharpened by our lighting design and the room’s attentive hush. From our vantage point in the wings, the pleasure is watching the cast build a genuine conversation with the audience—moments of sly confession, sparkling banter, then bursts of musicality that shift the rhythm without losing the pulse. The spirit of friendship that powers Les Copines d'Abord finds a natural home here: close enough to read a raised eyebrow, spacious enough to let a punchline land, and handcrafted to make every seat feel like the best seat in the house.

Artistic momentum and what to expect at Le Rideau Rouge

Les Copines d'Abord arrives on our stage with fresh wind in its sails, riding a wave of new material developed across recent performances and studio sessions. The creators behind the show have been honing sequences that braid playful storytelling with sharply observed slices of modern life—companionship, work, love, the gap between what we plan and what actually happens—always filtered through a distinctly mischievous voice. Audiences at Le Rideau Rouge will notice how the evening moves with a revue’s agility: a burst of sketch, a theatrical vignette, a cheeky musical detour, and spirited audience exchanges that feel improvised yet land with professional precision. Our technical team has worked closely with the cast to tailor transitions to the contours of our room, ensuring that each entrance reads cleanly, each aside is audible, and each crescendo hits with purpose. There is momentum beyond the stage, too: the troupe’s ongoing development of new scenes this season keeps the show evolving, and that sense of “now” is palpable in the room—the jokes feel freshly minted, the staging nimble, the camaraderie contagious. Expect an evening that celebrates complicity and comic timing, sprinkled with nods to Lyon and shaped for the unique energy of Le Rideau Rouge. Here, the tempo is brisk, the humor generous, and the final bows arrive only after every last ripple of laughter has had its chance to echo under our red canopy.
