If like me, you didn't do Shadowlands, just go into the Timeways in Dornogol (53,38) - (left of the upgrade spot), and the first portal on the left takes you to Ardenweald.
If you're doing this during the Anniversary event, and on the week this quest series started,
one of the three portals at the event in Tanaris (down by the pet fighting area) is to Ardenweald.Took me a while to figure that out!

Description
Oh {name}, I am glad to see you again. My superiors have informed me that I'm responsible not only for the guests here, but for everyone putting on celebrations! Now I'm hearing that Dapperdew in Ardenweald is trying to put on a new play and running into problems. Would you mind checking in on the situation? I can hardly manage this celebration, let alone whatever is happening in the Shadowlands.

Step 1 of 2. Chain order is read from the prerequisite data in the current retail client build, so it reflects what the game requires, not a curated storyline.

Thank you for coming! We've had a bit of a mishap with the script and various stage props. They've all gone missing! It seems as though a prankster has decided to make a mockery of our productions and scattered several needed items throughout the area.
