Ms. Godfrey is now independently developing several projects ... Pending other professional obligations she hopes to showcase them by early winter of 2008 or early spring of 2009.

On April 20th Ms. Godfrey performed at the Kennedy Center Concert Hall in a Production of Let My People Go. She narrated and performed the role of Harriet Tubman. It was a sold-out audience (2500 audience members!!!) and the acclaimed by reviewers. The association with Master Chorale was a joyous one.
She then went on to direct a private reading of a new work by Abdul Ali called Homecoming. Her actors included Alexandra Foucard, Gabrielle Goyette, Clayton LaBoeuf and newly Howard University graduates Alana Williams and Hector Bardeqguez.

Ms. Godfrey has recently participated in the reading of Clayton La Bouef's Inner Sleeve at the National Center for Music and Arena Stage's reading of Every Tongue Must Confess (formerly Feels Like Fire...Shut Up In My Bones) by Marcus Gardley; at their lovely temporary space at Crystal City.

Lynnie Godfrey has established the Godfrey/Stephens Academic Achievement Award. The award is named for her Mother and Father Fred and Maggie Godfrey, her Grandmother Lossie Stephens Godfrey and her Grand Uncle Mike Stephens. This award, given annually until her death, will benefit the children (with the highest year end academic grades) of Pope Chapel A.M. E. Church in Marianna, Florida. Marianna, FL is where her Father was born and where he met her Mother and where her Grandmother and Grand Uncle and family members were and still are members.

Lynnie Godfrey has successfully finished the run of
GEM OF THE OCEAN as Aunt Ester at Arena Stage.
The production and Ms. Godfrey along with the cast consisting of Joseph Marcell, Jimonn Cole, Clayton La Boef, Pascale Armand, Leland Gant and Timmy Ray James received critical acclaim. It was projected that at least 25,000 people viewed the production. She hopes you were one of them.
