You may have to un-pair from the phone and pair it again.

Or even erase it manualy then pair it..

According to Apple:

Theater mode prevents the Apple Watch display from turning on when you raise your wrist, so it stays dark.


It also turns on silent mode and makes your Walkie-Talkie status unavailable, but you still receive haptic notifications.


Touch and hold the bottom of the screen, swipe up to open Control Center, tap 🎭, then tap Theater Mode.



When theater mode is on, you see 🎭 at the top of the screen.


To wake Apple Watch when theater mode is on, tap the display, press the Digital Crown or side button or turn the Digital Crown.
