Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco, State Theatre in Minneapolis, Chicago's Cadillac Palace Theatre, at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas, and at the Wortham Center in Houston.

Before her work on Broadway, Eder gained experience in the entertainment industry. She teamed up with classmate Paul Todd, who had won international awards for his piano and organ playing, and began the "Paul and Linda Show". They traveled all over the U.S. performing concerts. After the duo went separate ways, Eder found herself as a lounge singer at the famous Harrah's Casino in Atlantic City, NJ. After someone suggested that she should strive for more better opportunities, Eder tried her hand at the talent show, Star Search, where she reigned undefeated for a record 13 weeks. Her performance caught the notice of Angel Records and, subsequently, Frank Wildhorn. She starred in two 1991 stagings of his musical Svengali, the 1990 World Premiere, 1995-6 National Tour, and 1997 Broadway production of his Jekyll & Hyde'', and the 2003 World Premiere of Camille Claudel (musical). The two married in 1998 and divorced in 2004; they have one son, Jake. Eder is a recipient of the Theater World Award (1996-97) for her work in Jekyll & Hyde.
