Les Femmes Ont Toujours Raison, Les Hommes N'ont Jamais Tort ! - Le Rideau Rouge (lyon)

At Le Rideau Rouge: an evening devoted to Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort

From our vantage point at Le Rideau Rouge, few titles announce their intentions as boldly as Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort. The production arrives in our intimate room with the exact blend of wit, rhythm, and playful friction that our audience loves: a lively, stage-forward exploration of couplehood where punchlines and truths collide at close range. The staging is nimble, inviting the crowd into the conversation—sometimes through a raised eyebrow, sometimes through a razor-sharp line that passes from flirtation to friendly fire in an instant. You will feel the performers’ timing as a living thing: a breath held before the kicker, a glance that says everything, a comeback that lands with a theatrical snap. We’ve tuned our lights and sound to underline those beats, preserving the freewheeling flow of the actors’ repartee while keeping every shift of tone clean and audible. At Le Rideau Rouge, the proximity between stage and seats becomes part of the show’s argument: relationships are about nuance, and nuance lives in the details you can see and hear up close.

Current artistic momentum behind the show

What excites us most, as a venue dedicated to comedy and contemporary theatre, is how this team keeps the material feeling current without losing the timeless fun of the theme. Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort thrives on new cultural references, agile callbacks, and fresh situations lifted from everyday life—those tiny domestic negotiations that escalate into wonderfully theatrical skirmishes. You sense the care in the writing: sketches crossfade into scenes, scenes snowball into games, and games loop back to earlier motifs so that laughs arrive both on impact and in delayed echoes. The performers lean into physical beats—micro-choreographies of exasperation and charm—so that the humor works even before the line drops. As they continue presenting the piece across stages like ours, the show benefits from audience energy: topical winks sharpen, character dynamics deepen, improvisational strands become crisp. The result is a work that feels both polished and adventurous, a live argument constantly refined by live reactions.

Hosting this production at Le Rideau Rouge allows us to frame the evening exactly where it belongs: among people who came to recognize themselves in a mirror that flatters and teases in equal measure. The room’s warmth helps the performers build a complicity with the audience—a chorus of knowing nods, sudden groans of recognition, and those ripple-laughs that start in one corner and spread, as if everyone just recalled the same scene from their own living room. Expect quick costume or prop cues that punctuate transitions, a tempo that springs from anecdote to archetype and back again, and a final stretch that gathers the night’s running jokes in a playful bow. Whether you come as a couple, a group of friends, or a solo connoisseur of well-aimed punchlines, you’ll find a show that lets everyone pick a side and change it three times before the next blackout. Our team is ready; the stage is set; the only thing left is to decide how loudly you plan to laugh.
