This current revival, the sixth for Neckties, seems particularly well timed, reflecting the anxiety of people eager to hold onto their jobs in these economic hard times, Luo said. “I don’t know if it is because of the financial crisis, but it meets the needs of today’s audiences with its mixture of lighthearted entertainment and slight melancholy at the human condition.” Although it was created over a decade ago, Luo has seen no need to adapt Neckties to the superficial changes that have taken place in the office environment over this time. “The externals may have changed, but the fundamental human interaction has not changed at all.”
