The shutdown on Broadway has been extended again — until at least early September.

Although an exact date for performances to resume has yet to be determined, Broadway producers are now offering refunds and exchanges for tickets purchased for shows through Sept. 6.

Veteran Broadway actress and singer Elaine Stritch, who enthralled theatre audiences for 70 years with her brassy voice and quick-fire comedy delivery, has died. She was 89.
      
Her death at home in Birmingham, Michigan was confirmed to US media by a close friend. Before moving to Michigan last year, she had lived for years at New York's luxury Carlyle Hotel.
