Alex Kealy: The Fear

Alex Kealy: The Fear After a 5-star, sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe, Alex Kealy is taking his new stand-up show about fear on a national tour. One of the country’s most exciting up-and-coming comedians, Alex has been the tour support for Jack Dee, Shaparak Khorsandi, Tom Rosenthal and Kieran Hodgson. Along with Ivo Graham, he hosts hit podcast Gig Pigs, and his sharp joke-writing and political takes have been featured on multiple guest appearances on BBC Radio 4’s The Now Show, Catherine Bohart’s TL;DR and Rhys James ’What Are You Talking About (both Radio 4). He’s also been a regular writer for Mock The Week and The News Quiz. “A career-defining show.” ★★★★★ Broadway Baby “Sharply witty, almost sexily cerebral…Kealy is going places” ★★★★ The Telegraph “Breakneck pace with surprising turns in eloquent comic’s wonderful new hour” ★★★★ The List “Fresh, insightful, and original…a great hour of cerebral stand-up” ★★★★ FringeGuru “A storming show from the whimsical funnyman” The Sunday Times The Times’ Top Jokes of Edinburgh 2024 “Excellent…dynamite Interstellar routine which I wish I had written!” Mark Kermode “5 comedians to see if you like James Acaster” Edinburgh Evening News
