BPI Closing Announcement

It is with mixed emotions that we announce that BPI has (mostly) closed up shop as of September 2nd, 2025. While we love the work we do, it has become increasingly difficult for small businesses to survive in this turbulent economic climate, and unfortunately BPI is no exception.

Prospero has always been the heart of our business, so he’ll be sticking around for the foreseeable future. Prospero cue light panels and parts are available for purchase online, as is our e-book, Embedded Electronics for Theatre, through the links below.  You can still find documentation for all of our retired products as well, all through the links below.

When we started building LED flicker candles more than 13 years ago – with Trinculo the Robot as our mascot, before we officially became Ben Peoples Industries – we never could have imagined that we’d come this far. We wouldn’t be here without our amazing team of employees and the enthusiastic support of our customers, so thank you all for being a part of the BPI family.
