I understand your perspective, but you've denied the existence of a choice where there is one. Does it have to be a one-person show? Of course not.

It's an interesting question, but whose responsibility are you proposing it is to find another actress? Who's paying that actress? Is the library going to pay twice as much, or is the existing actress expected to work the same amount of time for half the money to accommodate this second actress?
