In April 2008, scaffolding came down from inside the Casino Star Theatre, revealing a beautiful smooth ceiling all the way from the back backstage wall to the lobby. Old and broken light fixtures were replaced with newly molded replicas.

The 1912 cast-iron coal boiler that heated radiators and the 1950s oil furnace that blew heated basement air into the auditorium and lobby were removed in July 2008 by Peterson Refrigeration and Mechanical. The project was largely funded by a grant from the Utah State Legislature.
