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

Le Rideau Rouge welcomes Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort

At Le Rideau Rouge in Lyon, we are delighted to host Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort, a sparkling comedy that turns everyday couple life into a vivacious theatrical game. From the front row to the balcony, audiences feel the warmth of a production built on quicksilver dialogue, precision timing, and the kind of audience rapport that only thrives in an intimate room like ours. We present this show as a celebration of witty writing and stage chemistry: a lively rhythm of argument and agreement, of misunderstandings and reconciliations, where every punchline finds a perfect landing. Our stage team has leaned into the show’s nimble structure, favoring clear sightlines, nimble transitions, and a tempo that keeps laughter rippling. The production’s playful approach to gendered clichés is never mean-spirited; instead, it invites recognition and self-deprecating smiles, letting spectators see a bit of themselves in each tiff and truce.

A refreshed run and a spotlight on current artistic momentum

For this Lyon run, we showcase a refreshed version that reflects the creative team’s ongoing momentum this season: scenes have been tightened, callbacks sharpened, and a few topical twists incorporated to mirror contemporary couplehood—phones at the dinner table, calendar conflicts, and the new etiquette of who texts first and why. The performers carry a seasoned ease, switching registers between tender confession and spirited sparring, with quick costume beats and playful use of props to sketch multiple situations in a heartbeat. Their latest artistic news is above all a question of pace and presence: the company advances a touring rhythm that keeps the piece alive and responsive, feeding from audience reactions city after city and returning to Le Rideau Rouge with a renewed appetite for live exchange. As we see it from backstage, that continuity has honed their ensemble reflexes; improvisational glimmers appear at just the right moments, and the laughter they trigger feels wonderfully unforced. It’s a living comedy, adaptable and alert, more like a conversation than a lecture—only more musical in its timing.

Our venue is built to honor that musicality: Le Rideau Rouge offers close contact between artists and audience, a crisp sound design that flatters rapid-fire banter, and a cozy atmosphere that encourages the complicity this show thrives on. Whether you come with a partner, with friends, or solo, you will find an experience that balances light-hearted teasing with empathy—the kind of evening where a raised eyebrow or an exaggerated pause can crack the room open. The staging here emphasizes momentum and clarity: warm lights that shift with emotional temperature, a set that transforms with a swivel, a gesture, or a well-placed reveal. True to the spirit of Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort, the evening spirals from small domestic details to grand comic set pieces, and back again to the affectionate glow of recognition. We’ve scheduled performances to fit different rhythms—early evenings for a crisp after-work laugh, later times for a night out—so you can join the city’s chorus of chuckles at the moment that suits you best. From our perspective in the wings, the most gratifying view is the one facing you: a Lyon audience leaning in, laughing together, and leaving the room lighter than they arrived.
