Biographical Record

Mustapha Dassoukine was born in Derb Sultan, Casablanca. In the late 1960s, he formed a legendary comedic duo with Mustapha Zaari, creating the troupe Masrah al-Najm. Their performances on stage and national television brought biting yet affectionate satire of Moroccan bureaucracy, urban migration, and social pretense.
