One thing that you should do is network with your soon to be former coworkers. Set up a mailing list, start talking about what is happening and help each other find jobs. I've had to do this once or twice, though never at a place that outright missed payroll. But be prepared for the fact that most of your coworkers are in denial.
Depending on the state you are in it may be that management broke the law. Generally speaking, if you can't make payroll you are supposed to dissolve the business then and there and pay employees by selling the assets of the company.
And yeah, if management didn't even have the cojones to tell you that there wouldn't be paychecks on payday, the place is doomed and there is no helping it.

Good luck.
