Kevin McAleer (born 1956) is an Irish professional stand-up comedian. He came to prominence on the RTÉ television show Nighthawks which began broadcasting in the late 1980s. McAleer became known for his three minute sketches of surreal rustic tales told in his slow County Tyrone drawl. One critic said that McAleer put the dead back into deadpan. McAleer’s most recent show is entitled Chalk and Cheese.
