Adrien, né Julien-Adrien Renoux (27 May 1816, Paris – 19 May 1870, Paris) was a 19th-century French dancer and choreographer.
He danced in Lyon in 1841, in Paris from 1843 to 1846, in Brussels from 1847 to 1849. Back in Paris, he remained there until 1853 at least, and then danced in Marseille in 1857 and 1858 at least, in Bordeaux in 1863 and in Madrid the following year. He then left for America, where he performed in Boston in 1867 and New York in 1868.
