Hey :-) I’m so glad you’re here.

My name is Talia Eshel Gloster (she/her) My girlfriend calls me Tals and my little sister calls me Taya, because she couldnt say her Ls when she was little. It’s very cute. I’m an actor/artist/question-asker based in LA; I studied theater, linguistics, and anthropology at UCLA. At its best, this website will tell you enough about me to help facilitate us connecting for real for real (ie off the internet)!

Art I am drawn to tends to involve: candid explorations of grief, the centering of imperfect queer women/people, the pursuit of truth™ etc. Ultimately, what connects the variety of experiences I’ve been part of (stage acting, film acting, singing, dancing, writing, producing, directing, observing) is my search for meaningful collaboration with other artists. I have come to understand the creative process, particularly when collaborative, to be one of the most nourishing, innately human practices I could offer myself to.

If any of this resonates with you I invite you to keep perusing or better yet shoot me an email with whatever ideas came up — talk soon!

Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.
