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

At Le Rideau Rouge, the stage is set for Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort

At Le Rideau Rouge in Lyon, we cherish evenings that crackle with wit, timing, and the kind of laughter that breaks down barriers between strangers. That is why hosting Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort feels like a perfect match for our intimate room and its close, convivial atmosphere. This is a comedy of everyday life, sharpened by brisk dialogue and buoyant physicality, where the pleasures and pitfalls of modern relationships are put under a playful magnifying glass. On our stage, the show’s momentum is palpable: it moves fast, embraces the audience’s energy, and treats the famous “battle of the sexes” not as a contest but as a source of recognition and complicity. Expect a cascade of misunderstandings that ring true, portraits that feel familiar, and a rhythm that keeps the laughter rolling without losing sight of tenderness. At Le Rideau Rouge, proximity enhances every punchline; you can feel the dynamics between performers and audience intensify with each scene.

We are delighted to welcome this troupe at a moment when their artistic focus is clearly on precision and freshness. The writing has a contemporary pulse, laced with references to messaging habits, domestic negotiations, and the tiny rituals that couples invent to make life work. The scenic language favors clarity—smart props, rapid transitions, and pointed gestures that tell a story in a split second—so that the text lands cleanly and the comic arcs rise and resolve with satisfying inevitability. You sense a collective that has honed its craft in rooms like ours: they know how to read a crowd, stretch a beat, and let silence do as much work as a perfectly placed line. For us at Le Rideau Rouge, that mastery matters; it means spectators discover not just a hit comedy but a living piece of theater that breathes differently each night. The current version that arrives in Lyon places renewed emphasis on listening between the performers, letting small improvisational sparks illuminate the script’s lovingly drawn contrasts.

From your seat, you will see how Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort toggles effortlessly between sharp banter and slices of recognition that have the room nodding and laughing at once. Scenes pivot from first-date bravado to long-term negotiation with the ease of a quick costume change, and the performers guide you through it with warmth rather than mockery. We appreciate how the show’s humor is inclusive and generous; it pokes fun at everyone, yet never loses sight of the affection that keeps couples tethered even when they talk past each other. In our venue, the acoustics and sightlines make every eyebrow raise and whispered aside register, so the micro-comedy lands as strongly as the big set pieces.
