Thomas Schumacher, head of Disney Theatricals, was spotted before Thursday night’s opening of “The Little Mermaid” at the upstairs bar of the Paramount Hotel. People were congratulating him and he seemed in high spirits.

One wonders how he feels this morning.

While the consensus among regular theater-goers, myself included, is that “The Little Mermaid” came off better than anyone expected and much better than it was said to be in early previews, the show is being panned by the New York Times, the Washington Post and even Newsday’s Linda Winer, who often takes a more delicate approach.
