Tom Flanagan's silent slapstick acrobatic comedy show opened early in 2012 to a premier sold-out season at the Adelaide Fringe Festival.
Flanagan then took to the stage at Edinburgh Fringe Festival where the show won Mervyn Stutter's Spirit of the Fringe Award, and was listed as one of the top five comedy shows across the festival.
"Now audiences in Katherine have the chance to get swept up in the mayhem," director of the cultural centre Poppy Searle said.
In the style of Charlie Chaplin Tom Flanagan "takes one step forward and two-steps back in a highly skilled, hilariously funny and beautifully poignant bit of madness," the show's description reads.
"Be swept up in the mayhem that is the larger-than-life 'elegant buffoon' Tom Flanagan, as one man's life is flipped upside-down by the lonely, dust-covered world that surrounds him."
Tickets for the 6.30pm Saturday show at the Godinymayin Yijard Rivers Arts and Culture Centre can be purchased online here.
