Planet Connections Theatre Festivity is a socially-conscious arts festival based in New York City. Participating artists raise awareness for an organization or topic of their own selection. Planet Connections Theatre Festivity is the first eco-friendly arts festival as all participants work to create eco-conscious art with their marketing, design, and rehearsal.

Background
Planet Connections Theatre Festivity was founded in 2008 by Glory Kadigan. When Katy Rosin joined the organization to lead public relations, she came up with the concept of an eco-friendly festival to better give back and teach participants how to sustain the environment. Planet Connections Festivity has presented 204 theatrical productions, 75 staged readings, 47 films and 67 bands- all while benefitting 260 different charitable organizations.
