Read the facts and the question and then choose the best answer. A, a stage designer, agrees with B, a producer, to design the set for B's lavish production of the opera 'Aida' in Sydney for a fee of $100,000. Shortly before the work is to begin, A tells B that she has been offered a more prestigious job in New York, and she no longer wants to perform the contract with B. B says it will be impossible, even at greater cost, to find a replacement with the same experience and reputation. He wants the courts to order specific performance of his contract with A. Is a court likely to order specific performance of this contract? |
