MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya onscreen partners John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo were seen together watching “Himala: Isang Musical” last weekend in Circuit Makati. 

One of the musical's cast members, Vic Robinson, posted on his Facebook account a photo of John Lloyd and Bea watching the musical. 

"Thank you Popoy and Basha for visiting Baryo Cupang last night," he wrote.

Popoy and Basha were the iconic characters of John Lloyd and Bea in the hit movie “One More Chance” directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina. 

Baryo Cupang, meanwhile, is the small town where the girl named Elsa saw Mama Mary that prompted her to become a faith healer. "Himala" is a musical by Ricky Lee and Vincent de Jesus adapted from Ishmael Bernal's classic film of the same title. Elsa was played by Nora Aunor in the 1982 movie.

According to a Pilipino Star Ngayon report, Lee was Bea's scriptwriting mentor and Bea allegedly invited John Lloyd to watch the play.

Bea recently made public her breakup with boyfriend Gerald Anderson, while John Lloyd also reportedly split with partner Ellen Adarna, but keeps his silence on the matter. 

The onscreen partners are rumored to be working on a new reunion movie since it has been years since their blockbuster films “A Second Chance,” “The Mistress,” “Miss You Like Crazy,” and “Now That I Have You.”
