What's the meaning of "gaping up" below? If we do get tickets, the theater will be so crowded that I won't be able to sit in a front row gaping up at a giant screen.

Gaping means staring (sometimes open-mouthed) at the screen. 'up' means that you have to look upwards because you are close to the raised screen at the front of the cinema.
