So I guess hyphenated last names are sort of required for playing Olive, then?

I think it's actually her first names that are hyphenated: Jessica-Snow Wilson.

I saw Kate Wetherhead and thought she was fantastic. She should have gotten bumped up.

This isn't sour grapes for Kate but I'm not a Jessica-Snow Wilson fan at all. She seems to be the same in everything I have seen her in (Little Shop..., Good Vibrations and most recently Hello Dolly! at Papermill). When I think of her, the word pitchy comes to mind.

I can think of a couple other people who would've been better for the role, but Jessica will be good.

regarding the age thing, I think she is trying to look very mature in that picture and so I think that she will be fine. I was kind of hoping for the understudy (who is not Sara Jessica Parker) to take over, I saw her and she was fantastic.
