John McLaren has dedicated his life to rescuing mistreated donkeys. When he finds Pollyanne at a livestock auction - unloved and horribly frail - he knows that if he doesn't take her home to the sanctuary, she stands little chance of surviving. Despite her terrible start in life, Pollyanne has the X factor and is destined for more than the local nativity play. The bright lights of the West End beckon and before long, Pollyanne is appearing onstage with opera's biggest stars. Sarah Oliver's POLLYANNE is a heart-warming true story of unconditional love - and a Little Donkey with star quality.
