Here is a link, to an extended article on the magician who taught
magic to our favorite wizards-

It seems that Daniel was not involved in the original 'on the set'
magic classes, something he was very miffed about. So the magician
began give Daniel private tutoring in stage magic, something Daniel
appears to be becoming very skilled at.

For those who doubted the need for stage magic, you will find
references to many stage plays the incorportated stage magic into the
show; includign Scrooge, the stage version of 'The Invisible Man', and
 many others.

Just a thought.
