Robert Louis Fosse (23 Jun 1927 - 23 September 1987) ialah seorang penari, koreografer, pelakon dan teater dan pengarah filem Amerika. Beliau mengarahkan dan mengerjakan karya muzik di atas panggung dan layar, termasuk panggung muzikal The Game Pajama (koreografi) pada tahun 1954 dan Chicago pada tahun 1975 dan filem Cabaret pada tahun 1972.

Gaya koreografi Fosse yang tersendiri termasuk lutut bertukar dan "jazz hands". Beliau ialah satu-satunya orang yang pernah memenangi anugerah Oscar, Emmy, dan Tony pada tahun yang sama (1973). Dia dicalonkan untuk empat Anugerah Akademi, memenangi Pengarah Terbaik untuk Cabaret, dan memenangi rekod lapan Tonys untuk koreografinya, serta satu untuk arahan untuk Pippin.
