Charles Godfrey (born Paul Lacey, 26 April 1854 – May 1900), was an English music hall entertainer, described by Henry Chance Newton as "one of the most phenomenally successful artistes ever seen in the British music halls". Another writer described him as "a first-class actor with an outstandingly good baritone voice, plus a highly developed flair for the dramatic."
