That's a brilliant question! If you are referrring to the Harold Pinter one-act play,
one of the themes will almost certainly relate to the problem of non-communication. Even part of the title suggests this - "Dumb."
Pinter once said that one of the greatest problems facing modern man is related to communication - people either UNABLE to communicate or are UNWILLING to communicate. What is the case in this play? (There is a communication problem between the two killers and the man waiting for their arrival...)

Why is it called a dumb waiter and how did it get its name?
The term "dumb waiter" originates from the late 18th century, where "dumb" referred to something that is silent or does not speak, rather than unintelligent. This small freight elevator was designed to transport food and other items between floors without the need for human interaction, hence its "dumb" nature. The name reflects its functional purpose of serving without the involvement of a waiter, making it a convenient tool for serving meals in multi-story homes and restaurants.
Difference between dumb wait and dumb waiter?
A "dumbwait" typically refers to a small platform or lift used to transport food, dishes, or other items between different levels of a building, often in restaurants or homes.
