Under Catherine Schaub\u2019s finely gauged direction, Labarthe channels both the lush lyricism and the slow-burn torment of this \u201cmotionless voyage,\u201d distilling Bouvier\u2019s languid prose into a tactile, rejuvenating elixir that lets the audience feel every bead of sweat, jolt of wonder and sting of isolation.\r\n\r\n\u003Cb\u003EIn French.
