The logo of the post-migrant theatre Ballhaus Naunynstraße: a drawing of a dog’s head in profile, showing its teeth with its tongue hanging out. Next to the dog’s open mouth is a red star.

Gadutra

Gadutra

Gadutra is a DJ, producer, tattoo artist, and curator weaving chaos into creation. Splitting her time between Rio de Janeiro, Lisbon, and Berlin, her sound proposal is a collision of baile funk, bass frequencies and ancestral silence.

Her sound creations invite listeners to rebuild concepts of freedom, radical joy, sweat-soaked resistance, and sonic transcendence. 

Gadutra is also leading projects such as TroubleMaker Records – a dissident label that has been releasing emerging artists in Portugal since 2018. She is also the co-founder of Safada Berlin, a monthly club night, focused on amplifying the sounds of the global south. 

At the Ballhaus Naunynstraße, Gadutra created the sound design for Gira, Natasha Vergilio’s portrait performance.
