The St. Croix Classics Theater of Hudson staged its annual play on the lawn of the Octagon House, 1004 Third St., last weekend. This year’s production was “Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime,” an English comedy based on a short story written by Oscar Wilde in 1891.

Wilde takes some swipes at the intelligence of the nobility in the tale of an English lord who tries to kill a relative after a fortune-teller predicts that he will commit a murder.

The temperature was unseasonably cool for Saturday evening’s performance. It should be warmer when the cast gives repeat performances of the play at 6:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, August 7 and 8, in Pioneer Park in Stillwater, Minn.
