Where's best to sit at Manchester's Palace Theatre?

My niece has asked me to take her to see Mamma Mia in Manchester (a promise I made when she first saw the film at the cinema)

Unfortunately with leaving it so late to book the best seats are long gone, but can anyone recommend which, if any, are likely to be better. It's the first time she's been to a proper show so I want to make the most of it.

I'll be going at half term either Tuesday 31st, Wednesday 1st or Thursday 2nd and plan to get seats in the stalls but have no idea which would be best.

The only central seats left are from row P and behind.

The are a few seats as far forward as row E or F but these are right at the edge.

Or I can get some from about row J towards the centre of the side stalls.

Any recommendations appreciated. I'm guessing that the seats at the edge may have a slightly restricted view (based on the lower price) but hopefully there are people who have been to the Palace or similar theatres can advise better.
