If you filed a police report, you might be able to be compensated by the State's Crime Victim's Compensation Fund (if there's still money available given the budget crisis).

You might write to corporate headquarters and explain what happened, and see how they respond. If this occurred within the theater, the corporation might wish to settle to avoid bad publicity.

It sounds like there's more to the story than you have divulged in your short post.
