LED wall that fits

Under a 6.4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 9 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 42.1 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 67 x 9 (13400 x 1800 px, 4,703 kg, 96.5 kW).

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.

Seating estimate

After a 12 x 7 m stage, Key 1-8 holds about 3,752 theater seats, 1,534 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 1,055 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 35.1 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
