The Star Theatre is a historic two-story building in Price, Utah. It was built in 1923-1924 for five brothers who were immigrants from Greece: Pete, Angelo, Charlie, George and Harry Georgedes.[2] The building was designed in the Classical Revival style by architect J.A. Headlund, an immigrant from Sweden, with "fluted pilasters with Corinthian capitals; bands of round arch windows; an elaborate entablature with modillions on the cornice; egg and dart molding and dentils on the frieze and an architrave; and a parapet.".[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since August 9, 1982.[1]
