Ms. Orlandi has produced and collaborated in joint workshops internationally with Master Teachers in both New and Primary movement pedagogies. She is currently completing a book entitled Movement Marathons: Crossing Pedagogy © which explores exercises, practices, vocabulary, affinities, and cross training of five movement methods and pedagogy: Michael Chekhov, Rasaboxes, Viewpoints, Laban, and the Williamson Technique.

A founding member of Echo Repertory Company, Ms. Orlandi produced and adapted new plays, including The Triangle Factory Fire Project (a tribute to the women who survived the Triangle Factory Fire of 1911). She is also a founding member of Expanded Arts Theater Company, New York City, and a member of the National Association of Movement Educators.

“Janice Orlandi is a true artist for her ability to intuitively connect with characters. Her insights cannot be found in any book.

She looks upon characters with a deep empathy and compassion that illuminates a profound understanding of their journey. She incorporates characters’ intentions and meanings with the playwright’s intentions and meanings – constantly working in relation to the whole. Being coached by Janice was inspiring for she loves the work and it is contagious. She creates such an encouraging and safe environment that I felt free to make bolder, riskier choices. I didn’t really know what I was saying in my Shakespeare monologue until I worked with Janice. By working moment to moment, the thoughts began to connect and meanings changed… and a whole new character was revealed to me. Janice is a coach who works from the heart, not the head…and for that I trust her completely." - Allison Tigard
