In the world of professional drag, many performers call themselves "sisters," but for Josie Lee Turrelle and Sasha Turrelle, the bond is a 23-year legacy. Managed by Stray-Pups Entertainment, this globally recognized duo has evolved from a friendship forged in the heart of the community into a multi-faceted entertainment empire.
They aren't just performers; they are The Queens of the People.
The story of the Turrelle Sisters began at Tulsa Pride, but their foundation was built at the Open Arms Youth Project (OYP). Originally joining as youth members, Josie and Sasha grew up within the organization, finding their voices and their lifelong bond.
Years later, they returned to OYP as dedicated volunteers and mentors, giving back to the next generation. They became pillars of the community’s Halloween season, producing legendary haunted attractions like OYP Night of Horror—a testament to their commitment to the place where they first became family.
As the creative masterminds behind Frocked-Up Follies, Josie and Sasha have mastered the art of drag comedy theater. They produce high-concept musical parodies that have become cult favorites, including:
Rocky Horror Xmas Show: A holiday twist on the ultimate cult classic. With a production slate that is always expanding, the sisters continue to prove that if you can dream it, they can drag it.
A drag tribute to the Conners
The Golden Hoez: A raucous musical reimagining of our favorite Miami seniors.
The Turrelle Sisters are true crossover stars with a footprint across all media:
Their cinematic journey began with The Drag Mother, an acclaimed independent film produced by local college students. Today, they are featured in the horror film Horrified, and both Josie and Sasha appear as featured interviewees in a major feature-length documentary currently in production.
The sisters are recurring favorites on the Coca-Cola Porch morning news segment. Their spot-on Sanderson Sisters impersonations have made them a seasonal staple for viewers, leading to their 2025 smash-hit production Hocus Poke-Us at WOMPA.
No one hosts a party like the Turrelle Sisters. Their world-famous Drag Bingo shows, in collaboration with Patricia’s, are high-energy, interactive spectacles where the audience plays for a chance to win adult prizes. It’s loud, it’s proud, and it’s exactly why they are the people's favorites.
Every Turrelle Sisters show is a sonic masterpiece thanks to DJ Maxxxine (Maxine Turrelle). As the resident DJ and the heartbeat of the Turrelle brand, Maxxxine ensures the energy stays electric from the first note to the final encore.
From the historic stages of Cain’s Ballroom and IDL Ballroom to the Squeeze Inn and The District, the Turrelle Sisters deliver a world-class experience with a local heart. They are here to entertain, to inspire, and to stand up against tyranny.
Welcome to the family. The hair is iconic, the heels are high, and the power belongs to the people.
