Shape approximate: the venue publishes area only, so this room is drawn as a square of equal area.
LED wall that fits
Under a 6.1 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 8 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 20.2 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 32 x 8 (5376 x 1344 px, 2,560 kg, 47.4 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, W175 holds about 720 theater seats, 294 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 202 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 13.2 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
