A luxury cinema experience for Melbourne women who mean business
Welcome to The Boss Break Series, where powerhouse women press pause to play.
There’s a version of you that spends all week holding it all together — she is strong, capable, always in motion, making sure life runs smoothly for everyone.
And then there’s the version of you underneath it all.
The one who simply wants to pause... and soften.
Popcorn & Pearls is your invitation to step out of the constant demands and enjoy something slower, more indulgent, with women just like you.
An intimate cinema experience where you don’t have to manage a thing — just arrive and be taken care of from beginning to end.

SHOWCASE #1
SPA
WEEKEND
Join us for Spa Weekend, the laugh-out-loud comedy from the creators of Bad Moms and The Hangover.
A relaxing girls’ getaway? Not quite! Expect plenty of chaos, comedy and moments every woman will relate to.
A real spa weekend might not fit the calendar at the moment for you… but a Sunday afternoon with popcorn, women alike and plenty of laughs definitely can.

SHOWCASE #2
PRACTICAL MAGIC 2
Almost 28 years after the original Practical Magic first enchanted us, Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman return as the beloved Owens sisters in Practical Magic 2.
Returning to a world of moonlit mischief, powerful ancestral magic and a little bit of mayhem, the Owens sisters must once again confront the dark curse threatening to unravel their family once and for all.
For those of us who remember watching the original all those years ago, there’s something extra special about returning to this magical world — only this time, we get to experience it together.
And what better way to celebrate a little nostalgia than with popcorn, pearls, good company and a much-needed Boss Break!

The Boss Break Series is all about women pressing pause to play. And with that, beautiful connections and friendships often form naturally.
A Pause From It All
It’s nice to do something light and a bit playful, like being a kid again.
Just switching off from everything for a while is a great reset. It’s become something I actually look forward to each time.
A chance to pause, have a laugh and not think about work, family or life demands for a bit.” — Mary
When Women Step Away From The Demands
Reconnecting with the ladies I have met before and meeting new women are great. Ohhh and the activities are so much fun." — Marie
“It's so nice meeting lovely ladies and I haven’t had a girls’ night out in ages.” — Erika
“Thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to pause and chat about random stuff.” — Laura
“This event was so fun! The women were a blast and I loved the healthy competition. Thank you so much for hosting.” — Fiona
From New Faces to Genuine Connections
I’ve known Lisa Jane for years, we first met at a workshop over a decade ago and have stayed in touch since.
It didn’t take long to feel comfortable. I ended up sitting next to someone I hadn’t met before and we’ve since become really good friends.
It was such a lovely way to meet and connect with new people. The whole event felt fun, relaxed and easy going.”
— Stella
A Well Deserved Time To Recieve
We were looking forward to meeting like minded women and enjoying a night out without our husbands.
From the moment we arrived, we could tell Lisa Jane put in a lot of time and effort in organising this.
The personal touches made it feel extra special, especially the beautiful bespoke candle bonbonnière, which I still light at home as a reminder of such a memorable evening.
The celebration cake, the meaningful conversations and the warm, inclusive atmosphere were definite highlights.
I would highly recommend this experience to any woman in business looking for a stress-free, uplifting and genuinely enjoyable time surrounded by supportive, inspiring women."
— Betty
Where Women Arrive & Feel Included
Everyone was friendly and interacting. I felt really included from the start. In the past, I’ve found myself making excuses to leave early but these events are completely different.
It was fun and I loved how everyone just worked so well together because of the like-minded energy in the room. It actually reminded me of when I was a teenager. I felt like a kid again; there was a real nastalgic feel to it.
It was beautiful, there was plenty of food and everything felt very inviting.
The personalised gift really stood out the most. It was such a thoughtful and special touch.
After attending my first event, I came back again with a business friend. I recognise familiar faces and it’s been really nice connecting with women who share a similar mindset. I’m definitely looking forward to the next one."
— Anne
Thoughtful Touches to Remember
I met and connected with some wonderful ladies and the movie choice was perfect! I could tell how much effort Lisa Jane put into organising the event, and even though I turned up late (kids), she was thoughtful enough to make sure some of the canapes were left for me! <3 She sent us away with a lovely gift. Premium event hosting Lisa Jane! Looking forward to the next event."
