DEBUT | 2006 |
Mahboub is an Arab-Israeli monster who appears on Rechov Sumsum, the Israeli co-production of Sesame Street. Introduced in the 2006 revived series, Mahboub is a curious five-year-old. He speaks Hebrew and Arabic, and is a gifted drummer.
Mahboub also appears in the 2010 version of Shalom Sesame, the English-language US co-production, though considerably less so than the other Israeli Muppet characters.
