The 750-seat Egyptian opened on Main Street in 1928, designed by architect Montana Fallis, who also designed the Mayan Theatre in Denver. Like the Mayan, Fallis used a then-popular revival style of another ancient culture, this time Egyptian, in this theater's decor.
The Egyptian was beautifully restored to its original appearance in 1996 and continues to show movies today.
The theater was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
