Hugh was born in England to creative minds. His father, Jonathan, is a writer, as well as a philosophy teacher, and his mother, Sarah, is a publisher.
He attended several schools and successfully graduated. It was during this time which Hugh initially showed interest in acting through the school plays.
Hugh took a job as a bartender, before pursuing a career in theatre in the following Shakespeare written plays: "Measure for Measure", "Twelfth Night" and "Much Ado About Nothing".
