Will the Yellow Brick Road Lead to Manila Next Year?

Wicked Poster for the Gershwin Theater Staging

Ever since Idina and Kristin, I am sure that Filipino theater fans have been wanting to see Wicked staged in Manila, and the Petition to bring Wicked in Manila Facebook Page seems to have the latest scoop on developments. Here's a screenshot of what gave us renewed hope on Wicked in Manila:


This was followed by Sarah Caballero's post on what seems to be pictures of the program:

The program reads: 
"Perfomance Date
End of January to Early March 2014
6 Weeks"  
"Venue
Main Theater
Cultural Center of the Philippines"
"Total Capacity
90,000"
The official CCP website states that the theater can seat 1,821 guests at a time. If the total capacity is 90,000, does that mean that there would be about 50 performances in 6 weeks for Wicked?

In any case, be sure to also check out @wickedinmanila to view more updates.

Still taking every bit of news with a grain of salt. Let's just wait for the rumored press release on August for hopefully, official announcements.
