by Chris Struck
- Mar 10, 2020
Eder's ability to blend a tight belt with an operatic trill as easily as she breathes makes for one heck of a thrill.

Her shows are great.

by Timothy Shawver
- Feb 23, 2020
BEAUTIFUL: THE CAROLE KING STORY is the most earnest jukebox musical to date. The chord progressions and resolutions felt like being at an oxygen bar. It's ripe with nostalgia, fascinating for its window into 1960s pop and rock music, and spirit lifting for its recording of a beautiful human life
