So I called the theatres private showing line to further investigate. They couldn't help me with the actual event but the very helpful girl on the other end gave me some info. She suggested I reach out to the general and district managers and provided their #'s. She mentioned tugg was going through their corporate booking so all details would have to be worked out by them, but the managers may be able to get approval.
I was originally planning to go by there anyway to speak with a manager to see if they'd allow some posters out front. I know it's probably a long shot.
My other thought was to take this story to a news station. Is that not a good idea?
A GREAT idea. Your local news and newspaper websites should have a link to send them press releases, and Tugg has a template on their website somewhere. What I did was search each news organizations website for the terms vape Vaper E-cig, etc. When you find an article, the reporter who wrote it is a good one to also send info to. That is either their "department" or they have a personal interest?
