  The fastest known is in 37 plies. I found this in Journal Entry #361 on Tim Krabbe's website, which in turn pulled it from the 2007 5th issue of the chess magazine "Best Problems."

  To be straightforward, there is **no such thing as a mutual stalemate**. Saying
  
  > neither side could move on their turn
  
  is a bit confusing. If it's white's turn, then they can be stalemated. Black cannot be stalemated as well, because his opponent has not moved to put him in stalemate.
