Professional stand-up comedian Kevin McAleer, came to prominence on the RTÉ television show Nighthawks back in the late 1980s.
McAleer became known for his three-minute sketches of surreal rustic tales told in his slow County Tyrone drawl, but his latest show sees him at his splendid best.
It's been four, possibly five years since he last graced the stage of The Village Arts Centre, Kilworth so, little wonder then that the Co Tyrone native is keenly looking forward to bringing his new show 'Guru' to the Kilworth venue on Saturday, April 7. He also plays Friars' Gate, Kilmallock the previous night (Friday 6th).
'Guru' proves beyond doubt that McAleer trained for 33 years under the legendary Oprah Chopra in Palookaville, before founding the Mindless Nationalism Institute™ in Belfast in 1972 and just recently announced a series of worldwide apparitions in 2018, with mindfulness, bananarama yoga, tai chi with chai tea, avocado dream therapy, vegan dentistry, moon walking with wolves, digital sourdough photography, coffee visualization, and ego massage on his list.
He will be signing copies of his very latest awareness bestseller, The Idiot’s Guide to Low Self Esteem, which has been translated into more than 94,000 languages worldwide and beyond.
This promises to be an evening of divine light entertainment and one not to be missed.
Tickets for both venues are €20.
