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

A night at Le Rideau Rouge in Lyon

At Le Rideau Rouge, we love hosting shows that turn everyday life into a shared burst of laughter, and that is exactly what happens when Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n’ont jamais tort takes the stage. From the first lights-up, our room becomes a lively arena where couples glance at each other, friends nudge friends, and single spectators nod knowingly as the performers dissect the highs, lows, and hilariously awkward in-betweens of modern relationships. Our team has tailored the staging to highlight the show’s rhythm: brisk scene changes, tight lighting cues, and an intimate distance between the artists and the audience that keeps the jokes landing with precision. Because this production thrives on audience energy, it is a natural fit for our Lyon crowd—curious, quick to react, and always up for playful participation. Expect razor-sharp timing, a volley of punchlines, and the kind of comic tension-release that fills our venue with the warm, unmistakable sound of collective laughter.

About Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n’ont jamais tort

This hit comedy thrives on one irresistible premise: when it comes to love, nobody is entirely right and nobody is entirely wrong—and that is where the funniest truth lives. The show races through the delicate negotiations that shape couples today: who does what at home, how messages are (mis)read, why therapy sessions can feel like chess matches, and how an innocent comment at dinner spirals into a full-blown courtroom drama. The performers switch registers—from deadpan to explosive, from mock-lecture to feverish roleplay—so that each scene becomes a playful mirror of the audience’s own experiences. Without spoiling the surprises, you can expect recurring set pieces that spectators immediately recognize: the “IKEA argument” where a simple shelf becomes a referendum on life choices, the “GPS meltdown” that turns a Sunday drive into a comedy of control, and the “anniversary test” that examines memory, expectations, and damage control with whip-smart wit. In its newest iteration, the show also nods to the digital age: the tyranny of notifications, voice notes that sound different depending on who plays them, and the performative whirlwind of social media debates. For pop-culture lovers, the writing winks at the comedy language of contemporary TV and web culture—think the challenge energy popularized by LOL: Qui rit, sort!, the quick-fire topical rhythm audiences savor on Quotidien, or the conversational sharpness familiar to Clique—while keeping the story grounded in timeless, real-life couple dynamics.

We are welcoming this run at Le Rideau Rouge at a particularly vibrant moment for the artists behind the show, who are touring with renewed momentum and fresh material. Over the past seasons they have sharpened the script with new beats about dating apps, remote work coupledom, blended families, and the shifting etiquette of group chats; those additions give the production a contemporary pulse without losing the universality that made it a crowd favorite. Comedy-lovers who follow sketch culture will notice how the piece folds in the spirit of viral formats—mini-scenes that escalate quickly, call-backs that reward attentive listeners, and a finale that stitches earlier jokes into a gleefully precise payoff. We’ve crafted the sound and light at our venue to honor those gears: the sudden blackout for a punchline; the pinpoint special that isolates a confession; the subtle underscore that carries a monologue into a laugh-out-loud twist. On our stage, Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n’ont jamais tort plays like an affectionate debate between heart and logic, where both sides win because the audience does. Whether you arrive as a couple, with friends, or solo, you’ll recognize yourself in these sketches—and you’ll leave with new in-jokes to share on the way home through the streets of Lyon.
