The arts have always been a difficult business. In the 1600s, the arts were so competitive that poets and producers hired professional applauders called [claques](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claque). Shakespeare’s plays have literally [caused riots](https://culturacolectiva.com/books/history-of-riot-at-the-astor-place-shakespeare/).
