CHEKOV HIGH SCHOOL (Los Angeles, CA)
Long before Joey kissed Dawson or Imogen Heap fiercely asked, “Whatcha sayyyy?” a group of teens were falling in love, growing up too quickly and finding their footing in late 19th century Russia. High School’s tough. Russia’s tougher! Marry the two and you have a (completely improvised) teen drama from the 90's... the 1890's.
