In 2014 award-winning comedian Diane Spencer wanted to earn enough money to get on the housing ladder and she met a media celebrity who wanted a writer to create a fringe show. Their paths met, their opinions collided.

This is the story of possibly one of the strangest years in Diane's life, dealing with hazardous estate agents, language barriers and airplane turbulence in trying to achieve that dream of a place to call home.

In 2013, Diane wrote Hurricane Diane (performed at the Gilded Balloon) which received 4 x 5 star reviews at the Edinburgh fringe festival, revealing how Diane had met the love of her life, despite being a natural disaster. Power Tool follows on from that, revealing details from Diane's life story, told in her inimitable, hilarious and honest style.

Diane Spencer won the Chortle Best Newcomer 2011 and was The New Current's Woman of the Year in 2013. She has written 5 stand-up hour long shows, achieving critical acclaim and recognition for her edgy storytelling and charm.
