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

From the vantage point of our stage at Le Rideau Rouge, we love hosting works that spark conversation the moment the lights rise, and Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort does exactly that. Night after night, we see how the show’s playful take on modern relationships energizes the room: couples nudging each other at sharply observed truths, friends laughing at mirrored habits, and solo spectators recognizing themselves in the sly, everyday details. The performance’s rhythm is crisp and generous, alternating quick-witted exchanges with longer narrative payoffs that keep the audience engaged from the first entrance to the final callback. Stripped-down staging focuses your attention where it belongs—on the timing, the language, and the mischievous way familiar situations are reframed. In our intimate setting, every punchline lands with immediacy, and every pause invites a collective intake of breath before the next burst of laughter.

Current artistic momentum, refreshed material, and a living connection with the room

Part of the pleasure, for us as a venue team, is witnessing how this piece evolves in real time. The artist arrives at Le Rideau Rouge with a season’s worth of sharpened ideas, weaving in fresh observations that reflect the week’s news cycle, social media quirks, and the subtle shifts in how we talk to each other. You can feel the care in the construction: recurring motifs thread through the evening, turning the show into a single, finely tuned conversation rather than a simple sequence of jokes. The writing favors agility—clean premises, vivid images, and turns of phrase that repay attention—while the performance leans into audience proximity, with just enough improvisation to make each performance unique to Lyon. We pay special attention to pace and acoustics in our room; that tight calibration lets the artist play with silence, roll a laugh from the front row to the back, and return to a motif later with an even bigger release. The result is a living piece that respects the craft and remains open to surprise.

At Le Rideau Rouge, we curate with a simple goal: to create a shared space where performers and audiences can meet in full presence. Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort is tailored for that encounter. The humor is accessible without being obvious, precise without losing warmth, and built on those small truths of everyday life that feel universal once spoken aloud. We see spectators arrive curious and leave buoyant, still debating their favorite passages on the staircase and out on the sidewalk. Our team supports that journey from door to curtain: careful seating that preserves sightlines, attentive sound to catch the softest aside, and a lighting design that enhances expression without ever overwhelming it. If you’re discovering the show for the first time, expect a spirited, generous evening that draws you in and keeps you close; if you’re returning, you’ll find new turns, updated angles, and that satisfying sense of recognition that only a well-honed performance can provide, especially within the welcoming red glow of our Lyon stage.
