BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — Chicago-raised comedian and actor Godfrey will be performing at the Historic Bakersfield Fox Theater on Sun, April 23.

Godfrey, whose full name is Godfrey Danchimah Jr, is a man of many careers and talents.

He also has credited roles as a voice actor in animated shows like "Steven Universe," where he plays Kofi, and "Black Dynamite," where he voices the show's version of Al Sharpton.
