Shape approximate: the venue publishes area only, so this room is drawn as a square of equal area.
LED wall that fits
Under a 7 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 10 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 52.2 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 83 x 10 (13944 x 1680 px, 8,300 kg, 153.6 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, The Forum holds about 5,868 theater seats, 2,400 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 1,650 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 45.2 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
