How are other entertainers treated compared to actors and prostitutes in the antiquity period?

Asked by yaujj48 (1176points) January 24th, 2024

I have read that actors and prostitues are seen lowly than the average person since they are ‘selling their bodies’ for money, this included the gladiators who had not much rights in exchange for fame and money.

So I wonder about other entertainers like theater producer, musicians, writers purely for entertainment etc are treated compared with the ‘lowly’ class during the antiquity period?

Of course, you can use Rome as an example.
