There's not much of a difference, except the tone the word "thespian" implies.
I think the word "thespian" is used more to describe really serious and dedicated actors. That's not so much what it actually means, but you don't often hear people who aren't taken seriously within the acting community refer to themselves or be referred to as a thespian.

The noun definition of thespian is Actor, adjective - relating to the drama - dramatic role.
Although, many call themselves actors/actresses.... those who can totally embrace the stage and/or screen, and treat it as though it is a passionate love affair, able to bring to life the stories put forth so that their audience can live it for that moment, are true Thespians.... others, well ..... they are just merely entertaining performers. Anyone can perform...very badly at times. Thespians live the role to perfect it.

Meryl Streep is a thespian. Paris Hilton can call herself an actor.
Got the difference?

Basically the same. Thesbian usually refers to a "stage" actor.

No difference, just different words for the same thing.
