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

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

From our stage at Le Rideau Rouge in Lyon, we are delighted to welcome the sparkling, high-tempo comedy Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort. Our venue thrives on works that turn everyday life into theater, and this production does exactly that: it mines couple dynamics, family diplomacy, and the small misunderstandings that grow into epic negotiations, transforming them into a cascade of laughter. In our intimate room, the show’s quick-fire dialogue and razor-edged punchlines land with precision, inviting the audience to recognize themselves in the back-and-forth between viewpoints. The writing relishes contrasts—romance versus routine, honesty versus diplomacy, logic versus emotion—without ever taking sides, which makes the laughter communal rather than confrontational. From the first blackout to the last bow, the rhythm is brisk, the staging clever, and the mood unmistakably Lyonnais: warm, close to the audience, and full of shared winks about our daily contradictions.

At Le Rideau Rouge, this comedy finds a natural home. Our compact stage favors clarity of movement and crisp timing, so changes of mood and point of view read instantly, and every aside reaches the back row. Expect a lively interplay between the performers, with moments of mischievous complicity that invite spontaneous applause, and finely tuned pauses that let laughter swell before a new volley of lines arrives. The production is playful with contemporary references—text messages gone astray, the invisible “mental load,” negotiations about chores, and the joys and perils of advice from friends—so the show feels up-to-the-minute while staying universal. We have shaped the sound and lighting to accent the script’s switches from tender confession to comic duel, and our team accompanies the artists to ensure the flow remains seamless from scene to scene. Whether you come as a couple, with friends, or on your own, the immediacy of the room creates a cheerful sense of being part of the action.
