About Us
Established in 2007, EPS solves complex technical problems using a blend of mechanical design and creative artistry to produce and integrate spectacular special effects. Our expertise in project management ensures everything from stage show action equipment and performer flying rigging to themed architectural displays are robustly engineered for a one-of-a-kind audience experience. Taking concept designs past fabrication and installation, EPS also provides our clients with support through the project’s lifecycle. We offer training for their production workforce and inspections to maintain their equipment and systems.
