The Silo Theater is a collective of multi disciplinary artists based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

The group formed in 1995 in a squatted grain silo on the south bank of the river IJ. The artistic style of the groups shows can be characterized as non-verbal, non-narrative, and object oriented.

The core members of the group are Milou Veling, Jochem Hartz, Peter J. Charlton, Bart Sabel, and Miranda Kolvoort.

The director of the 2002 show 60 Degrees was Henk Schut who later went on to become the artistic director of the long standing Dutch group Dogtroep.
