LED wall that fits
Under a 2.5 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 1 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 38.1 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 60 x 1 (12000 x 200 px, 468 kg, 9.6 kW).

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 50 x 2 = 100 | 30 x 0.7 m | 38400 x 864 | 450 kg / 992 lb | 8.8 kW, 43 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 60 x 1 = 60 | 30 x 0.5 m | 12000 x 200 | 468 kg / 1,032 lb | 9.6 kW, 46 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 60 x 1 = 60 | 30 x 0.5 m | 7680 x 128 | 468 kg / 1,032 lb | 8.4 kW, 40 A @ 208 V |
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, Empress holds about 651 theater seats, 266 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 183 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 31.1 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
