"Delia Mayer delivers a “My Ship” which is simultaneously heartbreaking and radiant (and impeccably sung), the song which channels her - and everybody’s - quiet shock of recognition and acceptance. Her performance reminded me that the song is about more than simply conquering emotional trauma; it is about self-reliance, self-care, and the freedom to experiment with the possibility of happiness." David Savran 

​

"A stroke of luck - An extraordinary performance was offered on stage by the lead actress of the evening, the singer and actress Delia Mayer, crossing borders between language, dance and song - an absolute stroke of luck for such a play that broke all boundaries and demanded a lot from her as well as from the other numerous participants." journal21
