Hugo Le Brigand is a French dancer based in Vienna and co-founder of Tanztheater Sing, which he established in 2023 together with Sebastiano Sing. As movement director & core dancer, he shapes the company’s vision and contributes his distinctive movement language.
For more than a decade, Hugo has explored dance as a space for encounters and porous collaborations, weaving movement into dialogue with a wide range of artists, among them Doris Uhlich, Alix Eynaudi, Daniela Georgieva, Karin Pauer, and Ari Benjamin Meyers. His career has taken him to international stages such as Festival Santiago a Mil (Chile), Seoul Street Art Festival (South Korea), Impulstanz (Vienna), Rencontres Chorégraphiques Internationales (Paris), and Wonderfruit Festival (Thailand).
Alongside his artistic work, Hugo teaches contemporary dance at Public Moves by ImPulsTanz and Tanzquartier Wien. He trained at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance (Leeds) and the Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance, and also holds a degree in history from Rennes II University. In 2017, he was a danceWEB scholarship holder at ImPulsTanz and in 2018 received the START Stipendium for Music and Performing Arts from the Austrian Federal Chancellery. His career has since been supported by Tanzquartier Wien’s Body & Performance Practices program (2023) and the City of Vienna’s Scholarship for Performing Arts – Performance (2025).
