An idea/ postulation regarding an unsubstantiated observation or situation.
In short a theory is like having a suspicion about something, but not enough evidence to say whether it is true or not.
For example: If someone steals something from your cupboard, you may not have seen it happen, but you may well suspect someone of doing it; essentially this is a theory until such time as you have some facts or evidence to prove the case. You may have a number of theories, and not just one.
The same thing happens in various fields of research, scientists may have a suspicion or theory about a particular occurrence/ event/ particle/ microbe/ planet etc. They base their theory on reasonable deduction as well as the evidence at hand. They may then devise experiments (if possible) to prove or disprove the theory.
