Originally from Santa Barbara, California, Chauncey joins OBT after dancing with The Washington Ballet during their 2007-2008 season. Prior to joining The Washington Ballet, he spent five years with Colorado Ballet where he was a principal dancer. He has performed principal roles in Paul Taylor's Company B, Trey McIntyre's A Day in the Life and Balanchine's Rubies, among others. He has been featured in works by Twyla Tharp and Christopher Wheeldon, and has danced the role of Bluebird in Petipa's The Sleeping Beauty and Mercutio in Romeo & Juliet. Chauncey began dancing at age 12 at the Santa Barbara Ballet Center and in 1997 was accepted into The Kirov Academy of Ballet in Washington, D.C, where he trained until 2000.
