But I like it now that I hear it (:

Posted: 8/29/06 at 5:54pmHmm, she could be really good. My only complaint is she looks more "womanly" than the other cast members in the Bee, but they can make her look like a little girl i guess.

I think this is GREAT casting! Jessica- Snow Wilson will be a wonderful Olive. Two such great pieces of casting news

What insight you have, newsieboy!
I think she'll be perfect for the role.

Posted: 8/29/06 at 6:09pmI think Jessica's great, but doesn't she seem a tad more older-looking than the rest of the cast? I bet she'll be able to pull it off well though so I won't judge.

Posted: 8/29/06 at 6:16pmI think she'll do fine.

A better picture. She looks older in the Broadway.com one.

Posted: 8/29/06 at 7:39pmHa. They are like trading roles (except Jessica isn't playing Eponine now). Funny coincidence.

Posted: 8/29/06 at 7:57pmI saw the understudy a couple of months ago and she was so wonderful - too bad they aren't bumping her up.

Posted: 8/29/06 at 8:03pmIf you saw Sarah Styles, she's already taken. She's playing Olive on the tour (lucky them, I loved her!).

Shoot - I don't remember who I saw. I hope that's her though! She should be playing it. She was my favorite, other than the Barfee.
I have a friend who does animated voices in LA, and the whole time I was sitting through BEE I was thinking she'd be a perfect Olive. I emailed her and she responded that everyone she knows who has seen it has told her that. She needs to get in.

Posted: 8/29/06 at 8:14pmYou probably saw Kate Wetherhead, she goes on the most.

Posted: 8/30/06 at 2:17amAww, I love her! She was Eponine the very first time I saw Les Mis...good times. I think she'll be a fantastic Olive.
#20re: Jessica Snow-Wilson to join Spelling Bee cast 9/19
Posted: 8/30/06 at 2:26amI saw her as Eponine several times in 2003; didn't really care for her, but I think she'll make a good Olive.

Posted: 8/30/06 at 2:51amKate Wetherhead has been the u/s for most of the broadway run. she took two months off this past march to do Anna in Sarah, Plain and Tall. Sarah Stiles was the Olive and Logainne cover during that time, and is now playing Logainne on tour. Kate is AMAZING in everything (as is Sarah).

just caught tour cast in Atlanta.. Its like a whole fresh new show. Vocally ,they seem stronger and with time they will settle into their roles. Olive and Logainne ..were just.. WOW!! Its like theyve evolved from NYC Originals-
Celia will be brilliant in Les Miz,
