Grammy and Tony-winning producer Van Dean has announced the launch of a new record label, Center Stage Records. The new label has over two dozen albums scheduled for 2024, including Broadway, Off-Broadway, and West End recordings, plus concept recordings and albums from solo artists. 

Center Stage Records will also establish a London office, which will be under the leadership of Executive Director and London Producer Jamie Chapman Dixon. Additional Center Stage staff will include Robbie Rozelle as A&R (Artists & Repertoire) Director. Rozelle will also design artwork and packaging for new releases, and conceive and produce albums with artists. 

Previously, Dean ran Broadway Records, which is under the ownership of Cutting Edge Group. Center Stage will take over the management and distribution of about two-thirds of Broadway Records' back catalog, with intent to collaborate with Broadway Records on select future releases. 

Dean co-founded Broadway Records, which released nearly 300 albums under his leadership. Dean helped to produce Broadway Records' Grammy-winning cast recording of the 2015 Broadway revival of The Color Purple, and also served as a producer for the Tony-winning 2012 revival of Porgy and Bess, among numerous other producing credits.
