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, we love nights when the room crackles before the curtain even rises, and that is exactly the atmosphere surrounding Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort. Our intimate Lyon stage was built for this kind of relational comedy: quick-fire lines, razor-sharp timing, and audience laughter bouncing from brick to brick. From the very first beat, the production leans into the timeless push-and-pull of couple life—misunderstood messages, chore wars that turn into strategy games, and those tiny habits that trigger epic negotiations—while staying firmly rooted in today’s rhythms and references. The staging is nimble and close-up, a perfect fit for our layout, with punchlines landing at whisper distance and asides that feel conspiratorial. You’ll sense how the artists calibrate pace to the room, letting the crowd’s reactions steer certain moments without ever loosening the through-line of the evening. It’s an experience designed for proximity, a reminder that comedy about love and daily life is most electric when you can read a smirk from the first row.

Current artistic momentum, fresh writing, and the comedy landscape it speaks to

We’re hosting this run precisely because the creators behind Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort are in a particularly fertile period of writing and refinement. The material you’ll see at Le Rideau Rouge is a living, evolving score: beats tightened, transitions sharpened, new angles on digital-age romance and family logistics filtered through a generous, mischievous lens. If you’ve been following recent comedy touchstones like LOL: Qui rit, sort!, Jamel Comedy Club, or Marrakech du Rire, you’ll recognize the same appetite for speed and surprise: sketches that begin with everyday scenarios—voice notes gone wrong, first dinners with the in-laws, calendar clashes—then ricochet into absurd logic and crisp callbacks. What pleases us most is how the show balances crowd-pleasing momentum with craftsmanship: setups that plant seeds for payoffs thirty minutes later, recurring motifs that make the second half even funnier because the audience is now “in on it.” There’s also a gentle, playful interaction with the room—never the kind that puts anyone on the spot, but the kind that elevates shared experience, letting Lyon shape certain exchanges and local references. Our team has worked closely with the production to fine-tune sound and sightlines so that a raised eyebrow or half-whispered aside lands with the same clarity as a grand finale punchline.

Because Le Rideau Rouge is built for nuance, we can lean into the musicality of the writing: the rhythm of overlapping voices, the carefully timed silences, and those perfectly judged accelerations where the audience’s laughter becomes an extra instrument. The show’s design is discreet but effective—warm washes that frame the performers like confidants in a living room, a few well-chosen props that act as catalysts for increasingly unhinged logic about who is “right” and who is “never wrong.” Our staff will welcome you in the casual spirit of a neighborhood theatre: arrive early, let the pre-show playlist set the tone, and settle in with a drink as conversations build the anticipation that makes live comedy singular. In this run, timing is everything—doors, seating, light fades, and that first line that instantly tells you: yes, tonight will fly. Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort thrives on shared laughter and the pleasure of recognition, and we’re proud to present it in a room that amplifies both. Lyon audiences know how to listen and how to laugh; we make sure the artists hear you just as clearly, so every comeback can be just a shade sharper than the night before.
