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

At Le Rideau Rouge: hosting Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort

At Le Rideau Rouge, we are thrilled to welcome Les femmes ont toujours raison, les hommes n'ont jamais tort to our stage in Lyon, a space designed for the immediacy and intimacy that this relationship-driven comedy thrives on. Our team has followed the show’s momentum across France and prepared our theater to amplify its quick-fire timing, audience interplay, and razor-sharp observations about everyday life as a couple. The production arrives with a refreshed, current rhythm: the text has been honed in recent dates, the transitions are brisk, and the performers lean into the kind of live spontaneity that rewards an attentive room. Our technical crew has worked hand in hand with the company to sculpt sound cues and spotlights that punctuate the punchlines without breaking the fluidity of the dialogue. Expect an evening where the laughter spreads from the front row to the balcony in waves, with the performers reading the room and adapting on the fly—exactly the kind of close-quarter connection Le Rideau Rouge was built to cultivate.

Artistic momentum and the pulse of this season

From our vantage point, the artistic news surrounding this production is buzzing. The troupe arrives in Lyon on the back of a strong touring cycle and a revitalized run for this season, unveiling new passages and punch-up work that sharpen both the observational humor and the physical comedy. Several fresh bits premiered in recent performances—sketches such as “Le Test du Frigo,” “La Révolution du Canapé,” and “L’Algorithme du Couple”—and they have quickly become audience favorites for the way they crystallize small domestic moments into riotous set pieces. As the show radiates on social media with clips and backstage glimpses, a broader public is discovering a blend of fast-paced repartee and theatrical staging that plays beautifully in our room. We have tuned our lighting for crisp, cinematic close-ups during confessional asides and widened the soundbed for high-energy sequences where a single argument spirals into a mock epic. The creative team’s pace feels very 2024: nimble, responsive, and eager to test fresh angles on the eternal tug-of-war between romance and reason.

What can you expect, seat by seat, at Le Rideau Rouge? A comedic ping-pong match that invites the audience into the joke without ever breaking the story. The performers work through a constellation of scenes—“Le GPS de l’Amour,” “Le Conseil de Classe Conjugal,” and “Le Dîner de Famille en 12 Rounds”—each sketch telescoping a familiar situation into a playful showdown. Our configuration puts you close to the micro-expressions and timing details that make those scenes snap: the barely concealed eye-roll, the calculated pause before the knockout comeback, the split-second shift from tenderness to mock trial. We’ve shaped the evening’s arc with the company so that interactive beats land warmly, giving space for the room to answer back before the performers volley into the next laugh. Whether you come as a couple, with friends, or on your own, the show at Le Rideau Rouge frames daily life like a sport, a negotiation, and a dance, all at once, with the sort of rapport that blossoms only in a live theater where every seat feels close to the stage and every laugh feels shared.
