This story is local to me and the first news interviews I saw, they asked the woman to move to different seats or to watch on a monitor in the lobby (a crappy option, but...) --- I have a disabled son who can only communicate by making sounds (mostly loud ones). I find opportunities for him to go out and enjoy himself at shows that are appropriate for him. He doesn't live in a vacuum, BUT I don't expect the world to bend around him either. Everyone has the right to have a good time and to expect to get what they paid for. I think it's sad that it didn't work out for that little girl, but I don't think she should have brought her. JMO
