•Innocents at Risk’s founder Deborah Sigmund offered yet another wonderful idea for the sixth annual “Evening To Benefit Innocents at Risk” at Arena Stage June 8 as guests enjoyed receptions before and after the enchanting “Music Man.” Sigmund called the evening’s honoree Septime Webre, artistic director of the Washington Ballet, our very own “music man” with his outreach to the community through DanceDC programs and THEARC. Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) was honorary chair, and the emcee was Pamela Brown of ABC7/WJLA-TV and News Channel 8, who has championed the organization’s efforts to combat human trafficking.
