Robinson, Muppet Captain and creative performer of the characters Telly Monster, Mr. Snuffleupagus, and Slimey. Evans and Robinson, who also wrote a Sesame Workshop parenting blog called Sesame Family Robinson, will share details about the imaginative and creative work they do for Sesame Street. The husband and wife team offer a look at the nuts and bolts of creating the 49-year-old iconic domestic television show and the artistry behind the creation of its many international incarnations.
