After shocking their wives by winning a high profile jingle contest, they are catapulted out of Brooklyn and into the cutthroat world of Madison Avenue, where they find themselves torn between success and friendship. Filled with warmth, laughs, and an infectious score, The Honeymooners is a new musical comedy that will bang-zoom its way into your heart."

The Honeymooners is presented under a license from CBS Broadcasting, Inc.

For over 60 years, the series has never been off the air, enjoyed in reruns across the country as well as 50 countries abroad, including remakes in Sweden, Poland and The Netherlands.
