  You cannot install themes on free hosted WordPress.com blogs, you can only use them on self hosted WordPress.org installs.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  It is different, we only provide support for WordPress.COM blogs here unfortunately.

  You’ll have to direct your question to: http://wordpress.org/support

  You can’t install that theme or ANY theme on a WP.com blog. You can only use the ones on your Dashboard under Appearance->Themes.
