A mystical winter's tale performed under blacklight, using materials that glow when exposed to light in the ultraviolet spectrum. Becoming introduces the audience to a mysterious female figure who enacts a visually stunning ritual of rebirth and resurrection. Becoming is fairly unique among blacklight pieces as it has been elegantly designed entirely in white (which glows a ghostly pale blue under blacklight), and incorporates additional puppeteered light sources that are not blacklight-reactive. Audience members have described Becoming as "beautiful," "awe-inspiring" and "magical".
