Diane Spencer
UK comedian Diane Spencer delights audiences worldwide with her cheeky, dark and often edgy stand-up comedy. A dazzling performer, Diane captivates the crowd with her charming demeanour, cutting wit and skilfully crafted material.
Starting in November 2006, Diane quickly showed promise as a comedian, being a highly commended finalist in the Raw Comedy Quest competition 2007. Although British born, Diane was living in New Zealand at the time, and began shaping her comedy skills in Auckland, eventually being nominated for Best Female Comedian by the NZ Comedy Guild in 2009, notably for her solo hour “Wit, Charm and Filth” (2009). At this point Diane had performed in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, in a line-up show as part of the Big Comedy Breakfast, and accepted who she was, and what she wanted to do. Before emigrating back to the UK, Diane wrote an entire new hour long stand-up show called “Lost in the Mouth Specific” and embarked on a breakout solo tour to Adelaide Fringe, Melbourne Comedy, Sydney Comedy, New Zealand International Comedy and Edinburgh Fringe festivals. This show not only enabled Diane to break into the UK comedy circuit, it also won her the Chortle Best Newcomer.
